3 Jewels Yoga		Hi. We are a 501c3 nonprofit that was started in 1996 by the main students of the first American Geshe Geshe Michael Roach in the Gelugpa lineage of the Buddhist tradition. We began as a simple bookstore where people would gather to hear Buddhist dharma and drink tea. What started as a bookstore has grown into a large community space with a comprehensive meditation and yoga program rooted in authentic Tibetan Buddhism. We also offer a free course curriculum training in the major texts of Buddhism by The Asian Classics Institute. We are not just a yoga studio we are a space where people gather and train and support one another on the quest to achieve Enlightenment. And yes we really believe in that stuff. You’ll notice that many of our staff are volunteer staff. They contribute their time in the practice of karma yoga which is a spiritual practice to develop unconditional love. Ask them about it!

Abhaya Darpana		Abhaya committed to the path of Dharma in 2010, subsequently ordained in May 2020 as a Dharmacharya (Buddhist Lay Minister) in the Embracing Simplicity Contemplative Order under Venerable Pannavati and the late Venerable Pannadipa. In Dec 2023 he completed Upāsaka training under the mentorship of Ajahn Sona via the Secluded Study Training Program for Dedicated Lay Buddhist Practitioners Around the World offered by Birken Forest Buddhist Monastery (Sītavana), a Theravada Buddhist monastery in the Thai Forest Tradition. His primary practices of Samādhi, Satipaṭṭhāna (4 Establishings of Mindfulness) in the style offered by Bhikkhu Anālayo, Ānāpānasati (Mindfulness with Breathing), and the Brahma Vihāras (Divine Abidings) spring from an affinity for the approaches offered in Early Buddhism. He also has an appreciation for the later traditions, having undertaken Mahāmudrā, Dzogchen, and Zen retreats including formally receiving the 5 Mindfulness Trainings from Thích Nhất Hạnh in 2013 when he was given the Dharma name Healing Courage of the Heart. Having worked over 30 years in the hospital critical care setting, he brings his intimacy with the illness, death, and dying processes to bear in Dharma sharing. He is also passionate about Dharma as a central support for dealing with addictions of all kinds. Abhaya's spiritual journey includes being raised Catholic and attending elementary parochial school with Nuns as teachers, then diving deeply into Pentecostal Protestantism, followed by a departure from spirituality, with later membership in Unitarian Universalist churches. He committed to the path of Dharma in 2010, subsequently spending several months of cumulative time in silent meditation retreats and thousands of hours in personal practice and study. He has two lovely grown daughters, and an amazing canine companion named Bodhi who has served as a therapy dog in hospitals, nursing homes & addiction treatment facilities through the University of Tennessee's Human Animal Bond in Tennessee (HABIT) program. Abhaya is an affiliated teacher with Lotus Light Contemplative Community Center in Knoxville, TN and serves on their Board of Directors. Available for personal consultations or group sessions

It is a non-profit organization, has around 60 members and has been listed on the group list of the German Buddhist Union (DBU) for many years. Our meditation circle is open to anyone interested. After a sit-walk-sit meditation, a topic selected by the participants is discussed. The basis is often Buddhist texts and practices. But Christian ideas (e.g. Desiderata) and social commitment are also often discussed. We meet every Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. in the Umwelthaus Oldenburg (PFL rear, Peterstr. 3, 26121 Oldenburg). The offer is free of charge. At the “ Tea & Conversation ” on the first Wednesday of the month, personal experiences with meditation and “life in general” are usually discussed.

		About Us EN English English Thank you for taking the time to read about what matter to us. Our Team Originally, MANDALAS LIFE was founded in 2017 by a diverse team of art enthusiasts based in Kathmandu, Nepal, with the mission of bringing Himalayan handicrafts to people all around the world. Over the years, our trajectory intersected with many prominent nuns and monks, such as Matthieu Ricard, Thich Nhat Hanh, Thubten Chodron, Pema Chodron, Khyentse Norbu, Yongey Mingyur, to name a few. Their guidance profoundly influenced our worldview and instilled in us a deep desire to be integral members of the Dharma community. As the project expanded, our inspiration evolved with it. Our current objective is to make it easier for Dharma’s fundamental principles to be incorporated into modern platforms that connect with and are understandable by both present and future generations. Our vision Our vision is the preservation of the monastic culture of the Himalayas. With this in mind, the central mission of MANDALAS LIFE is to promote Dharma by cultivating awareness of Buddhist philosophy, culture, rituals, and heritage. This encompasses not only regions such as Nepal, Bhutan, Tibet, and India but extends to Buddhist communities worldwide. By doing so, we aim to assist and promote monasteries, scholars, writers, artists, and crafters by showcasing their exceptional Dharma related work to the world. Handicrafts & Delivery We commission the finest handicrafts to be used for decoration, spiritual and healing purposes. The designs and shapes of each items reveal a particular meaning. All our products are meticulously crafted and carefully stored in Nepal, ensuring exceptional quality and attention to detail. To take the items from the workshops to your location there are certain steps: 1- Usually the items are first sketched by the crafter or artist. After achieving the desired sketch they are crafted. The designing and crafting time varies from few days to a month depending on the size of the artwork. 2- If the item you have ordered is not in the workshop or any gallery, we ask a master to create one for you. During this phase we keep you informed regularly with pictures of the ongoing process. A unique copy of each item can be made depending on the order request. 3- Once the work is completed the item is brought from the workshops to our gallery in Kathmandu and sent to you via DHL or FedEx.

Adrian Baker		Adrian Baker is a psychedelic preparation and integration coach whose approach to Ayahuasca and the Ayahuasca analogue Soma draws heavily on his study and practice in nondual Buddhist and Hindu Tantra. In simple terms for those who are not yoga and meditation nerds (definitely not a requirement!) he believes that a contemplative approach to psychedelics (meditation mantra yoga the study of mythology to explore the unconscious) is an equally vital approach to psychedelic preparation and integration as the psycho therapeutic approach. Adrian became interested in Dharma (Buddhism) yoga and meditation when he moved to Thailand in 2010. After graduating from university in 2005 Adrian worked at the investment bank Goldman Sachs and then in political fundraising in DC before burning out and moving to Southeast Asia in hopes of finding a fresh start.

Ahimsa Trust		‘Ahimsa’ a word with roots in Sanskrit and Pali is an ancient Indian principle of nonviolence which applies to all living beings including the earth. Its relevance today is inspired by the lives and teaching of the Buddha Mahatma Gandhi and Thich Nhat Hanh. The Trust represents the Venerable Thich Nhat Hanh and his community in India. Through the powerful practice of Mindfulness it aims to create peace and harmony within oneself one’s family and society. It does this through alliances and programmes in Sanghas (communities of practice) and institutions in education culture environment peace keeping responsible tourism and sustainable livelihoods. We at Ahimsa Trust believe firmly that the eternal messages of peace and non violence are more relevant today than ever before considering the ecological catastrophe we are facing and the increase of different forms of violence in personal and public life.Our explicit goal is to bring peace using both inner and macro/community-based initiatives. SPIRIT OF VOLUNTEERING In 1995 one of our Trustees won a prize of Rs 100000 from a Japanese foundation as the Best Volunteer for the Year. This prize money was used to set up Ahimsa Trust in May 1996 and was its very first donation. Thus Ahimsa was formed – and from the beginning the spirit of volunteering defined us. Ahimsa’s core objectives are volunteer driven providing a platform to link like minded people who want to make a difference. Ahimsa has a number of volunteer teachers and facilitators who help to promote the goals of the Trust. This whole website has been put together by a team of volunteers from all across the world. We are thankful for their time hard work and dedication in putting together the website and completing it in time to commemorate Ahimsa Trust’s 25th Anniversary ! Our special thanks to Renate Wit Shameem Amudha Hemant Jatin who helped us kickstart this project and to Raj Prashant Deepak Deepshikha and Sandeep who guided us through its completion.

Ajahm-Sucitto		ntered monastic life in 1975 in Thailand but since 1978 I’ve been based in Britain. I spent fourteen years training under Ajahn Sumedho the senior Western disciple of Ajahn Chah and so I’m part of that lineage of direct practice. The lineage has an umbrella website www:forestsangha.org. I am based at Cittaviveka Monastery in Chithurst West Sussex near Petersfield in southern England (cittaviveka.org). You can visit the monastery we are receiving guests and Cittaviveka is so far back to normal.
Ajahn Brahm		Ajahn Brahm is the popular Buddhist teacher to a growing international audience of people keen to learn meditation and develop a deeper spiritual understanding. He is also the founding father of an emergent Australian forest tradition of Buddhist monasticism focused on being true to the original roots of the Buddha's Teaching of Dhamma and Vinaya.
Ajahn Thanasan		Ajahn Thanasanti has meditated for 30 years and has been a Buddhist nun for almost two decades. She is currently based in CO pursuing her vision of monastic and lay practitioners working together to create viable practice communities.
Ajahn Amaro		Ajahn Amaro (born 1956)[1] is a Theravāda Buddhist monk and teacher, and abbot of the Amaravati Buddhist Monastery at the eastern end of the Chiltern Hills in South East England. The centre, in practice as much for ordinary people as for monastics, is inspired by the Thai Forest Tradition and the teachings of the late Ajahn Chah.[1] Its chief priorities are the practice and teaching of Buddhist ethics, together with traditional concentration and insight meditation techniques, as an effective way of dissolving suffering.
Ajahn-Bodhipal		Ajahn Bodhipālā was born in South-East Asia in 1940 and had three children with her now deceased husband. She also has five grandchildren. She studied applied mathematics and worked as a computer programmer for nearly twenty years. She was able to 'go forth' as an anagārikā in 1998 and received sīladhāra ordination in 1999. Venerable Ajahn Sumedho was her preceptor. Her daily life in the monastery is challenging, since she has to simplify the complexity of her thoughts in order to give space to the intuitive knowledge to develop. Owing to her mathematical training, she is not surprised that this process involves a lot of patience and endurance, and is time-consuming. She considers her work in the monastery as a tool to measure her level of practice, and also as a litmus test of her ability in maintaining herself as an observer instead of as a doer. She realizes that no better place exists on earth for being able to observe the activities of her mind, and at the same time she can accumulate good deeds by serving the sangha at Amaravati.
Jayasaro		Jayasāro was born on the Isle of Wight in England. At the age of seventeen having been in contact with Buddhism through reading he left for India where he spent "a couple of years" travelling and learning before hitchhiking back to England. At the time he was still looking for a way of life in line with his personal principles. In Asia he heard about an Englishman who had been a monk in the Thai Forest Tradition and was leading meditation retreats. Upon hearing his stories of life as a forest monk he realised it was the way of life he was looking for.
Ajahn-Pissano		Ajahn Pasanno took ordination in Thailand in 1974 with Venerable Phra Khru Ñāṇasirivatana as preceptor. During his first year as a monk he was taken by his teacher to meet Ajahn Chah, with whom he asked to be allowed to stay and train. One of the early residents of Wat Pah Nanachat, Ajahn Pasanno became its abbot in his ninth year. During his incumbency, Wat Pah Nanachat developed considerably, both in physical size and reputation. Spending 24 years living in Thailand, Ajahn Pasanno became a well-known and highly respected monk and Dhamma teacher. He moved to California on New Year’s Eve of 1997 to share the abbotship of Abhayagiri with Ajahn Amaro. In 2010 Ajahn Amaro accepted an invitation to serve as abbot of Amaravati Buddhist Monastery in England, leaving Ajahn Pasanno to serve as sole abbot of Abhayagiri for the next eight years. In spring of 2018, Ajahn Pasanno stepped back from the role of abbot, leaving the monastery for a year-long retreat abroad. After returning from his sabbatical, Ajahn Pasanno now serves as an anchor of wisdom and guidance for the community. The monastery is now under the active leadership of Ajahn Ñāṇiko, who Ajahn Pasanno requested to serve as abbot.
Ajahn-Ratanava		Ajahn Ratanavaṇṇo was born in Korat, north-east Thailand, on 10 February 1971. After finishing high school he worked in an industrial concern for a year, and then, as he had not been called up for military service, he decided to become a monk for three months. Those three months have extended indefinitely. In his fifth year as a monk Ajahn Ratanavaṇṇo moved to Wat Pah Nanachat, where he acted as the monastery secretary. In 1999 he spent a year at Abhayagiri Monastery, before moving to Amaravati in 2001. Ajahn Ratanavaṇṇo returned to Amaravati in late November 2012, after spending the three previous years back in Thailand.
Wat Pahnanacha		The environment is clean, peaceful and harmonious. The place is in the forest, and everybody monks lay guests and Thai people love it and respect it and they’re all taking care of it. In Wat Pah Nanachat you get to meet new people from all over the world, each with a different background. But everyone is there for the Dhamma. You get to know good people but make sure you are a genuine person yourself. In Wat Pah Nanachat it is the Dhamma 24h, but everybody is doing that willingfully. Only people interested in the Dhamma want to stay there. And you will find many guys among the lay guests interested in ordaining and becoming monks, maybe not at their current stay but some time in the future. The chores we do, everybody does it because they want to, there is no one who is watching to tell us we did something wrong but everybody follows the schedule. I personally enjoyed the afternoon sweeping, I felt I was doing something wholesome and it helped me clear my mind.
Ajahn-Sundara		Ajahn Sundarā was born in France in 1946. She studied dance in England and France. After working for a few years as a dancer and teacher of contemporary dance, she had the opportunity while living and studying in England to attend a talk and later a retreat led by Ajahn Sumedho. His teachings and experience of the monastic way of life in the Forest tradition impressed her deeply. Before long this led her to visit to Chithurst Monastery, where in 1979 she asked to join the monastic community as one of the first four women novices. In 1983 she received ordination as a sīladhāra, with Ajahn Sumedho as her preceptor. After spending five years at Chithurst Monastery she went to live at Amaravati Monastery, where she took part in establishing the nuns’ community.

All One Dharma		about us Welcome. All One Dharma is a Buddhist sangha that formed in 1997 when a group of friends decided to meditate together and invite any one else who was interested to join them. Over the years All One Dharma has evolved into a diverse and supportive group comprised of meditators of different ages and backgrounds. While most of us practice some form of Vispassana meditation no particular Buddhist philosophy or teacher guides the group. Instead we draw upon the wisdom and experience of the group as well as a variety of Buddhist teachers ranging from Thich Nhat Hanh to Jack Kornfield to Shinzin Young. Our purpose is to support each other's practice and explore the dharma. Ultimately we endeavor to bring to our daily lives all that we learn by meditating and discussing the teachings together. about all one dharma dharma quote of the week All One Dharma is an eclectic group of people of all ages and from all walks of life that have come together to learn more about the teachings of the Buddha and to share our own experiences of the Dharma in safe and comfortable surroundings. We are committed to making the Dharma real in this modern world. A deed is well done when after having done it one regrets not; and when with joy and pleasure one reaps the fruit thereof. – Dhammapada 68

Ming Yu of American Buddhist Confederation on fighting the COVID-19 Pandemic Venerable Ming Yu American Buddhist Confederation ______ On Monday, during the 2020 James Parks Morton Interfaith Awards Gala, we are delighted to have the opportunity to present this year’s Faith Justice Hero Award to the President of the American Buddhist Confederation, the Venerable Ming Yu. Venerable Ming Yu, on behalf of the Interfaith Center of New York, thank you for your incredible efforts to mobilize your community. Collectively, your temples brought supplies to numerous hospitals across the boroughs, and you showed great leadership and collaboration with local civic leaders who stepped in to help as a result of your generosity. Congratulations on the award you are about to receive. Please join use Monday evening online to see the Ven. Ming Yu receive the 2020 #FaithJusticeHero Award. In the meantime, we are proud to share with you details of the American Buddhist Confederation’s incredible Covid-19 relief efforts, as shared with us by the Ven. Ming Yu himself. Contact: Rev. Au Ling Rev. Fa Yun The seeds of the International Buddhist Confederation were sown in the Autumn of 2010, during Ven. Lama Lobzang’s visit to Sri Lanka. There, some respected Sangha members suggested that India host a large-scale international Buddhist conference. The planning then began for one of the largest international gatherings of Buddhists ever to take place on Indian soil – the Global Buddhist Congregation. The suggestion was then made that a permanent umbrella body should be formed to carry the work and vision of the Global Buddhist Congregation forward into the future and to represent the enduring interests of Buddhism in the world. From August 27-28th 2011, a working sub-committee met at the India International Centre in New Delhi to prepare the ground for the formation of this international Buddhist body. In November 2011, New Delhi was host to Global Buddhist Congregation (GBC) that was attended by over 800 delegates and observers from Buddhist organizations and institutions from around the world, who came together to address common issues facing the modern world from the perspective of the Holy Dhamma.

		Certainly! Let’s correlate the Neoplatonic triad, the Platonic transcendentals, and the Buddhist concepts as you specified: The One – The Good – Dharmakaya: The One in Neoplatonism is the ultimate, ineffable source of all existence, beyond all attributes and distinctions. The Good in Platonic philosophy is the highest form, the ultimate principle that gives meaning and existence to all other forms. Dharmakaya in Buddhism represents the ultimate reality or truth body, embodying the essence of enlightenment and pure existence beyond material and spiritual forms1. All three concepts signify the highest, most transcendent aspect of reality, the source from which everything emanates. Nous – The True – Emanation Bodies (Sambhogakaya and Nirmanakaya): Nous in Neoplatonism is the realm of pure intellect, the first emanation from the One, containing the Forms or Ideas. The True in Platonic thought is associated with the realm of Forms, the eternal and unchanging truths that are the objects of knowledge and understanding. Sambhogakaya in Buddhism is the enjoyment body, representing the divine Buddhas in the Buddha realms, associated with the blissful and rewarding aspect of Buddhahood1. Nirmanakaya in Buddhism is the transformation body, representing the physical appearance of a Buddha in the world, such as the historical Buddha, Gautama1. Both Nous and the True represent the realm of intellectual and eternal realities, while the Emanation Bodies (Sambhogakaya and Nirmanakaya) represent the manifestation of these higher truths in both divine and physical forms. Psyche – The Beautiful – Tathagatagarbha (Buddha-nature): Psyche in Neoplatonism is the soul, responsible for the creation and animation of the material world, bridging the intelligible and sensible worlds. The Beautiful in Platonic philosophy is the manifestation of the Good in the sensible world, reflecting harmony and order. Tathagatagarbha in Buddhism, or Buddha-nature, is the inherent potential for enlightenment within all beings, representing the ultimate beauty and purity of the mind1. Both Psyche and the Beautiful represent the dynamic and creative aspect of reality, bringing higher principles into the material world and making them perceivable, while Tathagatagarbha signifies the intrinsic potential for realizing this ultimate beauty and purity within oneself. This correlation highlights how different philosophical and religious traditions conceptualize the ultimate reality, intellectual truths, and their manifestations in the world.
Amida Malvern		Like much of the world our sangha meetings have been held via zoom for a number of months and I expect that this method of gathering will continue for some time to come. Although I miss seeing my sangha in person one advantage is that I can be joined by friends in different parts of the country or even further afield as I can join them in turn. And even friends who live close are not deterred from sangha gatherings by feeling unwell or contending with Scottish winter weather and dark nights. So it may transpire that this may be a better way to continue at least some of our gatherings. Connections with others felt particularly precious yesterday Bodhi Day. Now as with others who made the same decision I ease into a time which will become ripe with new beginnings as yet not knowing what shoots will emerge from the dark earth and what those new shoots will flower into. This season of darkness is one of turning inward for us all. As a friend said a few days ago all that we have received can be broken down into rich loamy compost nothing ever wasted to nourish what comes next. As well as feeling a huge sense of grief and of loss of course at this parting of the ways after 22 years the hint of a sense of that new life to come - that there are new buds on the trees shoots under the earth - gives a feeling of hope. Not a time for the shoots to emerge the buds to open yet but there’s a sense of a freedom from structure hierarchy expectations constraints of role and form - the possibility of new types of gatherings the forging of new friendships and new understanding new directions - eco dharma Therapeutic Shamanism the insights and inspiration of Bill Plotkin - and more. So while I tussled with making my decision and in the days since faith and friendship have been a great refuge and solace as clouds obscured some of the light. Taigh an t’Solais means ‘house of light’ in Scottish Gaelic (as opposed to Taigh Solas which means a lighthouse). This house on the side of Kinnoull Hill across the Tay from the city of Perth faces West and is flooded with light.

Amida Sheffiel		At this time the Amida Trust was a network of local groups in the UK. The particular attraction for me was the combination of Buddhist psychology and engaged social action. Dharmavidya’s book The Feeling Buddha was a revelation and inspiration. And Amida Sheffield is where I met my wife to be Sundari (Gina Clayton). In 2000 the Amida Sheffield group was invited by a Canon at Sheffield cathedral to join him in guiding weekly 30 minute mediation sessions in the cathedral. Sundari and I have continued with this until the 2020 pandemic put a stop to face to face contact. Over several years I coordinated the Annual Amida Conferences and later contributed to the Buddhist training for counsellors and therapists. When the Amida Order was established Sundari and I joined and were ordained in June 2005. Especially important was the summer training programme at Amida France - community living activist training and Dharmavidya’s teachings in particular the summer he fully ‘came out’ as a Pureland teacher. Professionally I am an organisational psychologist (now retired) and a community activist. I have also trained in Process Oriented Psychology. This and Amida Buddhism complement each other and inform much of my personal and professional practice. For the past 10 years I have been a member of Sheffield Faith Leaders group and co-chair of Sheffield Cohesion Advisory Group. Although I’d love to live in a world at peace I know this is not possible when such colossal injustice exists. For me racial justice is the key to addressing unconscious privilege that reveals many forms of injustice. Remembering the personal vow I took when ordained (To hear the cries of the world) I sometimes say to myself be careful what you ask for. As age and mortality come increasingly to my attention the importance of faith friendship and community come even more to the fore.

Amita Buddhism		Without discipline, you will indulge yourself and do whatever you want, which will create a lot of troubles in your life, your own troubles, and troubles between people; it will also bury the crisis of impermanence. The numerous crises in the world are caused by people having lost their ability. The precepts of being a human being, I don’t understand the principles of being a human being! The precepts should be kept in the heart, so that the mind can be calm. When you hear good things, you should inspire each other and encourage each other at the same time. Only when the mind can be calm can you exert your wisdom. Wisdom should be between people. Inspire each other. With a mind that is always wise and contemplative, you will naturally find that a wonderful life comes from experience, and the good and bad tastes in life are all good conditions. There is no need to deliberately seek merit and virtue, as long as the "pure heart" is untainted, the "pure heart" is pure, and the "pure heart" is pure. It is so important to stay in the heart when it is true and when it is "empty and false".

The Amitabha Buddhist Society of U.S.A. was founded by Venerable Master Chin Kung in 1989 to advocate the Pure Land Study of Buddhism. It is a non-profit organization operated entirely by volunteers with funds one hundred percent donated by people all over the world. The Pure Land Study is a method of cultivation introduced and taught by Shakyamuni Buddha twenty-five hundred years ago for people who wish to attain Buddhahood within one lifetime. It is the fastest and easiest way for anyone who wishes to transform this life's pain, suffering, misery and misfortune into a life of happiness, fulfillment and prosperity with direction and purpose. Furthermore, to achieve peace and harmony among all people, all beings and the environment in the universe without bias against those of different race, nationality and religion. The Pure Land Study teaches the Law of cause and effect, explains the cycle of transmigration, teaches The Five Sutras and One Commentary of Amitabha Buddha, and introduces the Pure Land of Amitabha in detail. Of all methods of cultivation, Pure Land Study uses the smallest number of sutras and commentaries, and requires the least amount of time. Although it is the easiest cultivation method, it results in incredible achievements.

		You are here: Home / H.E. Choeje Ayang Rinpoche H.E. Choeje Ayang Rinpoche Life’s most awesome event is death, and death comes to us all without regard to wealth, beauty, intelligence, or fame. Buddhist teaching states that, although death is inevitable, how we die-terrified and confused, or with confidence and spiritual mastery-is within our control. Phowa deals directly with our fear of death and our aspiration for enlightenment. Phowa, or “transference of consciousness,” is the Tibetan Buddhist method for attaining a better rebirth, liberation, or enlightenment at the moment of death or in the after-death Bardo. Sufficiently accomplished practitioners may also use this uncomplicated and powerful method for the benefit of other persons and animals who have reached the end of their present life. Tibetans consider it extremely important to perform Phowa for the dying and recently deceased. The verse, “Great is the matter of Birth and Death” is written on the wooden block that is struck to summon Zen monks to meditation. Phowa goes directly to the heart of the matter. Fear of death is a gateway that leads many to the study and practice of Dharma. Phowa can appeal to those who, although ignorant of the vast traditions of Dharma, have a natural concern about their future death. Additionally, some of the signs of accomplishment of Phowa practice are physical and visible and often appear after only a short time of practice. Perhaps no Tibetan lama is more identified with the transmission of Phowa to the West than His Eminence Ayang Rinpoche. Ayang Rinpoche is a Drikung Kagyu lama who holds both Nyingma and Drikung lineage. He continues the unbroken line of succession of the Drikung Phowa lamas from the Supreme Guru Dorje Chang to the present time. He has done extensive retreat on Phowa practice and is widely recognized as a Phowa master. A delegation of high lamas , including the Sixteenth Gyalwang Karmapa Rangjung Rigpe Dorje and Yongzin Jabra Rinpoche, concluded that Ayang Rinpoche was the wisdom incarnation of Terton Rigzin Choegyal Dorje. In 1982 HH Karmapa requested Ayang Rinpoche to travel to “the Western countries” and there teach Phowa, stating that, because Dharma is not part of the cultural heritage of the West, Westerners usually lack faith in the power of Dharma. He said that Phowa’s effect of quickly producing physical signs in the practitioner’s body would help give the materialistic European or American student confidence in Dharma, and increased faith would serve to encourage sincere Western students to practice virtue. However, Ayang Rinpoche expressed one concern. Would people benefit? Phowa is one of the Six Yogas of Naropa. This body of practices-advanced tantric teachings that apply powerful liberated technique to each of the six bardos (Phowa corresponds to the bardo of the moment of death)-is rarely taught before the practitioner has completed the foundation practices (Ngondro).You are here: Home / H.E.

An Duong Templ		THON THAI THONG Buddhism is a most profound and wholesome educational path taught by Shakyamuni Buddha to all people. In his forty-nine years of teaching, Shakyamuni Buddha explains the true nature of life and the universe. "Life" refers to ourselves, and "universe" refers the environment in which we live. Those who understand these truths are called Buddhas or Bodhisattvas. Those who do not understand are called worldly people. Cultivation is the process of changing the way we think, speak, and act towards people and towards the universe from an erroneous way to a proper way. The guidelines for cultivation are awareness, right understanding, and purity. Awareness is the opposite of delusion. Right understanding is the opposite of deviation. Purity is the opposite of pollution. These three qualities can be achieved by practicing the Three Learnings of self-discipline, concentration, and wisdom.

Not only about oneself, but the society in which one lives. Celtic Buddhism could be viewed as an open exploratory adventure with no conclusion. And from this point of view everyone can jump in and through their own practice help to shape Celtic Buddhism. " Celtic Buddhism is also involved in prison work through the Engaged Zen Foundation; in Hospice through Buddhist Hospice; in animal rescue, environmental and Greenpeace projects.

We are located in Humboldt County, CA, in the heart of the ancient redwood forest. We were founded many years ago and then paused. We have been gathering together again in some format since early 2016. We take refuge in the sangha by offering one another support on the path via our weekly meditation and dharma sharing meetings, days of mindfulness, book group and by practicing Thay’s* teachings on Buddhism and the art of mindful living together. Sangha business is carried out by the Caretaking Council (CTC). The CTC meets quarterly, or more often if needed, to plan DOMs, make decisions about sangha activities, review sangha finances etc. Please email us if you are interested in learning more about the CTC. New friends are warmly welcome to join us. We strive to be an open and inclusive community. We welcome thoughtful feedback that helps us identify ways in which we can be more inclusive and barriers to inclusivity in our sangha that we may not have recognized. *Thich Nhat Hanh is affectionately referred to as Thay (“Tay”) for “teacher” by his students. “Thay” can also refer to any Buddhist teacher.

Andrew Hayden		My first taste of anything dharma related was through the book “Way of The Peaceful Warrior” which I read when I was 18 years old back in the year 2000. I also enjoyed reading books filled with Zen stories such as “Zen Flesh, Zen Bones” during my early 20s. Although I later went on to do a couple of Goenka retreats and subsequently had some intermittent attempts to practice meditation, it was only by around the start of 2013 that I really began to put dedicated effort into learning the dharma (which at that point in time, to me, meant doing daily meditation sittings). Around this time, I started wathcing a lot of YouTube videos (teachers such as Adyashanti and Shinzen Young) and then started getting into Theravada Buddhism. After listening to a bunch of online dharma talks by various teachers in the Theravada tradition (particularly Thai Forest), and doing a couple more Goenka retreats, I ended up mainly listening to and practicing in line with the teachings of Thanissaro Bhikkhu, and also Rob Burbea, (who was, at one time, a student of Thanissaro). Before this, point in time, I had tried practicing using various dry insight methods but found that they never really worked for me. Thanissaro Bhikkhu and Rob Burbea showed me how to develop (and the importance of) good, nourishing samadhi, alongside developing the clear seeing and discernment of vipassana through the practice of Anapanasati. Finally I started getting some real results and confidence in my practice, which by then had become more integrated into my daily life. I'm really happy to have now found Dhammarato's teachings and to be part of a real sangha. I appreciate how down to earth and simple Dhammarato's teachings are with his emphasis on getting satisfied and staying satisfied right here, right now.

Anenja Vihara		Abbess: Ven. Phalanyani Bhikkhuni We are very happy to have Ayya back with us after a month and a half! Our dear Julia, who lived with us for a year, drove to Düsseldorf to see Ayya's mother on Saturday and drove back yesterday with her and her dog Winila. The three arrived safely yesterday afternoon after the long journey. Winila, who had been diligently provided with treats by Ayya's mother, immediately felt at home with her flock of nuns. Even Siha, who was admittedly a bit nervous, already seems to be making friends with her again.

Appreciate what is good and breathe it out. It is not necessary to own or personally experience good fortune to enjoy it. There is no need to examine justice or fairness.

Battlecry of Freedom by Ngakma Nor’dzin Aro Books worldwide 2019 ISBN 978-1-898185-46-8 Part II - the slogans p. 188 It is fine to feel happiness and pride at being able to recognise awareness in the moment – a moment of success when the open choice becomes available through seeing the pattern directly. That sense of pride however must not become a reason to play with awareness as an internal game of skill disconnected from the needs of others and insensitive to others. Battlecry of Freedom by Ngakma Nor’dzin Aro Books worldwide 2019 ISBN 978-1-898185-46-8 Part II - the slogans p. 184 Posted by Aro Ling Cardiff at 16:47 No comments: Email This BlogThis! Share to Twitter Share to Facebook Share to Pinterest Labels: Battlecry of Freedom 12 September 2024 Conceptual Rehearsal II - Illusory Advice Apprentice: When I read about these terrible things I start to wonder what is the point of meditating and reciting mantra. How can this help to solve the real problems in the world? It seems rather self-centred. Teachers: Your practice of shi-nè and mantra is not going to miraculously manifest food in the mouths of the starving or a roof over the heads of the homeless. However your practice makes you different and this difference can have an influence on everybody and everything you touch. Your practice creates a little prism that facilitates the sparkling through of realisation. It can feel as though this is centred on yourself when you practise alone a lot of the time but as your practice changes how you respond to people and situations that prism can radiate to a surprising degree. Being—or attempting to be—a present aware and honourable human being affects all who come into contact with you. Having a kind and friendly approach to life influences your circumstances. If every human being was kind and honourable many of the problems in the world would mysteriously dissolve – but there would still be the chaotic dance of events being exactly as they are.

Aro Ter Lineag		Nyingmapa Chagdud Gompa San Francisco Practice Group Tibetan Nyingmapa The Aro gTér is a lineage within the Nyingma school of Tibetan Buddhism. The pure vision terma on which it is based teaches all Buddhist topics from the point of view of Dzogchen. The Aro gTer terma was received by Western-born Buddhist, Ngakpa Chögyam. History Ngakpa Chögyam founded the Aro gTér organization in the 1980s.[1] He was born in Hanover, Germany in 1952 and grew up in England. His father was English and his mother German; he is distantly related to the composer Franz Schubert. He studied Buddhism from the early 1970s through 1989, while working as a manual laborer, factory worker, and a truck driver in Britain to subsidize his education.[2] According to a terma which Ngakpa Chögyam received in visions, the Aro tradition has antecedents in a 'Mother Essence Lineage' of female tertöns originating with Yeshe Tsogyal,[3] and forward to Kyungchen Aro Lingma (1886-1923).[4][1] According to the Aro gTér, Kyunchen Aro Lingma first discovered the terma.[4][1] This terton says Aro Lingma transmitted the lineage to her only son, named Aro Yeshe (1915-1951).

The Aro gTer terma was received by Western-born Buddhist Ngakpa Chögyam. Ordained Aro tantrikas wear traditional ngakpa robes. Those are not unique to Aro. They are an aspect of the non-monastic system called gos dkar lcang lo (pronounced gö-kar-chang-lo) which is most common in the Nyingma but actually found in all four Schools. You can find this in the Rangjung Yeshe online dictionary too. "Gos dkar" means "white robe" and "lcang lo" means "long hair". Lots of non-Aro folks who dress that way notably the ngakpa community in Repkong Amdo. It was not well-known in the West until recently but there are now many people both Tibetans and white folks teaching on it. One particular proponent is Dr Nida Chenagtsang (an ethnic Tibetan from Repkong) of the Ngakmang Institute. You can see a picture on his page at: The Aro gTér is a lineage within the Nyingma school of Tibetan Buddhism. The pure vision terma on which it is based teaches all Buddhist topics.

ASHEVILLE DHAR		Founded in 2011, Urban Dharma NC’s mission is to foster a deeper understanding of the teachings of the Buddha, build meaningful community, and integrate contemplative teachings into everyday, ordinary life. Located in the heart of West Asheville, Urban Dharma exists for both self-identifying Buddhist practitioners as well as the broader Asheville community and its visitors. We offer a meditation space to sit and be quiet; a consecrated shrine to experience the sacred and be blessed; a place to hangout with friends, tea, or a book; and a social space for community wellness, artistic, cultural and spiritual events. Although many of our core members and volunteers are connected with the Drikung Kagyu Lineage of Tibetan Buddhism, we are a non-sectarian, public Buddhist temple open to all seeking refuge and sanctuary. Our vision Urban Dharma NC is a Buddhist temple in the heart western North Carolina. We are committed to growing the Dharma locally, in order for the Buddha’s teachings to take root in our lives here in this corner of the world, in the soil of these Appalachian mountains. Our motto “Changing Minds, Transforming Cities” expresses the vision of living the transformative teachings of the Buddha in the contemporary, urban context where we ground our lives. At Urban Dharma, we emphasize integrating rather than compartmentalizing, engaging rather than retreating, and communing rather than isolating. We believe that Buddhist teachings have much to offer – not only to those who self-identify as Buddhist but more fundamentally to all who seek to live intentional, compassionate, and balanced lives. And we believe that we can do this best when we have a community that is welcoming, open, and supportive.

Ashoka Vihara		As you all know renovation work is in full swing in Ashoka Buddha Vihar. It would be fair to say here that our budget was crossed. Some necessary work pending that we thought we would have to complete within this stage of work and/or else we would have to take it to the next phase of renovation which would cost us more. In this context I once again request all Barua family and members to contribute in Vihar. We are associated with establishment of Buddha Vihar you are all founder of this Buddha Vihar and it is your moral duty to spend some of your earnings for Buddha Vihar. No big contribution required a small effort as charity will go a long way. We are over 50 families a small donation will be enough to continue this cause. I am confident that you will do the necessary work based on priority and contact the signature below for more clarification. Yours in the service of Dhamma. Meenal's Barua 9814006751
Asian Classics		The Asian Classics Institute is dedicated to the serious study and personal practice of the original teachings of the Buddha. e Tsongkapa, also known as Je Rinpoche Lobsang Drakpa, was perhaps the single greatest commentator in the 2,500 year history of Buddhism. He was born in the district of Tsongka in eastern Tibet, and took his first vows at a tender age. As a teenager he had already mastered much of the teachings of Buddhism, and was sent by his tutors to study at the great monastic universities of Central Tibet. Here he studied under the leading Buddhist scholars of his day; it is said as well that he enjoyed mystic visions in which he met and learned from the different forms of the Buddha himself. The 18 volumes of Tsongkapa’s collected works contain eloquent and incisive commentaries on virtually every major classic of ancient Buddhism, as well as his famous treatises on the “Steps of the Path to Buddhahood.” His students, who included the first Dalai Lama of Tibet, contributed hundreds of their own expositions of Buddhist philosophy and practice. All of the teachings in the ACI archives are derived directly or indirectly from his writings and those of his students.

		You may wonder what to expect from the course. It is difficult to say, because much will depend on the effort you put into it. If you only go through the lessons once, never contact your instructor, and skip the practical exercises, you will probably be disappointed. Most public libraries have books on Buddhism on their shelves, and you can get just as much information from them. But if you use the course as it is designed, you may gain something from it that cannot be found in a book. It is then important to bring up in the contact with your supervisor all that about which you require more information or further explanation. In the dialogue with your supervisor, much can hopefully be clarified. The aim of the course is to show interested parties the meaning and value of Buddhism and to give an impression of the diversity of Buddhist movements, and furthermore to provide sufficient elementary information about Buddhist teachings to be able to put them into practice in a simple way. After all, theory without practice has only limited value. The course attempts to provide a clear and balanced overview of the basic concepts of Buddhism and the teachings of some of the major schools. In addition, the lessons also contain some guidelines for the practice of simple forms of meditation. ENGLISH You may wonder what to expect from the course.

Asociacion Zen		Zazen If you were expecting to find the slightest trace of conformism, conventional attitudes or stereotyped behaviour in the monk Kosen, you will be disappointed: he does not have any. The monk Kosen is from the lineage of the great iconoclastic masters, free from any yoke, liberated from every dogma and always disconcerting. Kosen, Stephane Thibaut started his eventful life in 1950, in Paris. After many experiences in the agitation of the world, he comes across the practice of the transmitted zen, with the man who was introducing it to the Western World, the "Boddhidharma of modern times": Master Taisen Deshimaru. Stephane is then nineteen years old. He became his disciple, shaved his mop of hippie hair and is ordained as a zen monk. From then on, he dedicated his life to the zen practice and followed his master everywhere, until the latter's death fifteen years later.

Association fo		Bhikkhu Pesala set up the Association with the help of Christine Fitzmaurice and David Glendinning in 1995 to support those who want to practise insight meditation seriously. He first practised meditation at a retreat conducted by Mr John Coleman in 1975 and ever since has dedicated his life to Dhamma practice. After his ordination in 1979 under Venerable Mahāsi Sayādaw he adopted the Sayādaw’s method of watching the abdominal movements and slow mindful walking. He teaches meditation in the UK wherever and whenever he is invited. Please see the Retreats Page if you would like to attend a one-day meditation retreat or contact Bhikkhu Pesala if you would like to organise a retreat in your own place. The Buddha The central teaching of Buddhism is mindfulness which leads to insight. Insight removes craving and delusion the causes of suffering and so a diligent meditator enjoys mental peace. Ultimately one can attain nibbāna — the end of suffering. The practical teachings of the Buddha are open to all. Suffering is a universal affliction craving and ignorance are universal traits and mindfulness is a universal remedy. Mindfulness is the only way to identify and eliminate the causes of suffering. Mahāsi Sayādaw In 1949 Venerable Mahāsi Sayādaw was invited by Prime Minister U Nu to be the teacher at a new meditation centre in Rangoon. From 1949 until his death in 1982 the Sayādaw worked tirelessly to promote mindfulness meditation. At the latest census there were over 300 branch Mahāsi Meditation Centres in Burma as well as numerous international centres. The Sayādaw lived an exemplary life. His priceless gift to the world was his precise and systematic method of insight meditation. Bhikkhu Pesala Bhikkhu Pesala is an English monk ordained at Oxford by Venerable Mahāsi Sayādaw in 1979 during the Sayādaw’s missionary tour of the West. He has been four times to Burma to practise intensive meditation with senior disciples of Mahāsi Sayādaw. He has edited many valuable books by Burmese meditation masters to make their teachings more accessible to readers who are unfamiliar with Pāḷi technical terms. These books are available in HTML and PDF format on this web site.
Association Ze		To practice zazen the best thing is to come to a dojo. A dojo is the place where one practices the Way. Do means: 'the way' - jo means: 'practice'. A dojo is a place where calm and silence reign where the space is arranged in such a way as to best promote the practice of meditation. In a dojo we are not alone: often there are monks nuns and bodhisattvas (lay people who have received ordination) beginners and regulars who come to practice together. Practicing together is a great help especially for beginners. The Zen Association of Belgium brings together about fifteen dojos in Belgium. You will find the list here. >> list of Belgian dojos Zen course: the sesshin Besides the daily practice there is the possibility of participating in courses called sesshin . Sesshin means: touching one's mind. The tradition of sesshin has existed for a long time in Japan and dates back to the time of Buddha Shakyamuni. Master Taisen Deshimaru introduced this practice to Europe. A sesshin is open to all. Even beginners can come and participate to have a first and deep acquaintance with the practice of zazen. During a sesshin all daily activities (cooking washing dishes cleaning and other tasks) are the continuation of meditation of zazen: all gestures are performed with the same state of mind as during zazen. Participating in a sesshin is learning to integrate Zen into daily activities. The Zen Association of Belgium organizes several sesshin each year. These sesshin are special moments for the entire sangha . The sangha is the community of all practitioners. During a sesshin we meet to practice zazen intensively for several days. To lead these sesshin the Zen Association of Belgium often calls upon Master Roland Yuno Rech a close disciple of Master Deshimaru and vice-president of the International Zen Association.

Associazione T		First of all it is important to specify that the Dō j o it is not a 'gym' in the common sense of the term. Our School has always been characterized by being precisely a D ō j o . D ō j o from the Sanskrit term Bodhi M anda means: Place where the Way is practiced or place of awakening. This term helps us understand the important spiritual implications that underlie the practice of Martial Art. The educational and formative foundation of the practice of Karate-D ō is the basis of teaching in our Association. An education intended as a tool for physical moral and spiritual evolution through and with the body which educates and makes man "grow" regardless of his age allowing him to develop all his potential. The practice of authentic Karate-D ō Traditional Okinawa includes a great variety of technical formative and educational aspects that are increasingly neglected and ignored in sports clubs where the reduction of Karate to competitive sports is proposed to achieve competitive results more quickly but in an equally ephemeral way. In these cases it certainly cannot be said that true Karate-Dō is being practiced . in this case we should speak of karate-sport and the exasperatedly competitive aspect of the training often leads to results that are anything but educational for young people . In our School the practice of Karate- Dō is understood in its fullest sense. The asd Tora Kan was founded in 1986 and since then Sensei Paolo Taig ō Spongia (7th dan) personally directs all the courses. The Vice Technical Director of the school is Sensei Valerio Proietti (5th dan) . In all the courses there are also Fuku Shidoin Black Belts who assist in the Teaching. It is Honbu D ō j o ( D ōj o primary) of Italy for the Okinawan Goju-Ryu of the International Okinawan Goju-Ryu Karate-D ō Federation (IOGKF) of which Master Spongia is Chief Instructor and National Manager for Italy . The students of our School therefore have access to all events and activities: Gasshuku Stages Seminars courses and graduations organized in Italy and abroad by the IOGKF. The Karate-D ō courses for children and adults are held every day with many possibilities of time slots. There are also preparatory courses in Karate-Dô for children led by highly qualified teachers. All courses are strictly organized with limited places . The Tora Kan D ō j o in addition to being the primary school of the IOGKF it is affiliated with the Italian Federation of Judo Wrestling Karate and AM ( FI J LK AM ) and with the ASI . It is a Zen practice Dojo . A special section is dedicated to Zen practice therefore interested students have the opportunity to deepen their practice also through Zazen meditation and Zen education: philosophy lifestyle and thought that is at the root of Martial Art. Zen practice is conducted by Taig ōSensei Sōtō Zen Monk and Zen Teacher . Tora Kan is also a Dô jô of Aikido recognized by the Aikikai Institute of Japanese Culture in Italy. Our school also holds Kung Fu Taiji Quan courses .

		Welcome to Auckland Insight Meditation We are a volunteer-led group based in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland in Aotearoa New Zealand who meet regularly to explore the transformative practice of Insight Meditation or Vipassanā. Scroll down to our blog to see our recent talks and news. Insight Meditation uses mindfulness to develop more steadiness and calm so that we can clearly see some of the common thought-patterns that create stress and distress and learn how to help those patterns release. As a result of a deeper self-understanding we're able to live with more ease happiness and peace. Regular practice of insight meditation helps to reduce stress and anxiety improve emotional regulation enhance concentration and focus and cultivate greater empathy for ourselves and others. As both wisdom and compassion get stronger we’re able to live with greater ease contentment and freedom and to make a positive contribution to our families workplaces and communities. Although Insight Meditation practice comes from the Buddhist tradition it’s not necessary to be Buddhist to experience its benefits and no particular belief system is required. At Auckland Insight Meditation we aspire to create a warm and welcoming community where people of all backgrounds and experience levels can come together to support each other in their meditation practice. We welcome people from all cultural religious and non-religious backgrounds - including race ethnicity socio-economic class sexual orientation gender identity age education and physical ability - to explore these transformational teachings with us for the benefit of all beings.

Avalokitesvara		Until now it is still an area shrouded in legend to find out what happened in the past in the Pamekasan area. This is understandable because until now no authentic records have been found in the Pamekasan area either in the form of encryption or descriptions like in the Sumenep area. However in various places many remnants of cultural relics have been found. One of these discoveries was what was found by a man named Pak Burung around the early 1800s namely four statues made of hard black stone in the Candi village. The Candi village is currently part of the Polaga Village area in the Galis sub-district Pamekasan Madura. The Candi village is a village located near the beach namely the Madura Strait beach the south coast in the Pamekasan Regency area. The beach is known as Talang beach. Talang beach is indeed a sloping beach and has very good views. It is also used as a port. Therefore it is not surprising that since the time of the kings a port was built on Talang beach which although not much developed is still functioning today. Thanks to the beautiful scenery around Talang beach the regional government of Pamekasan Regency is currently building a tourist spot called TALANG SIRING. In accordance with its function as a port Talang beach during the time of the kings was always used as a place to anchor boats from all over the archipelago especially the Majapahit fleet to supply the Pamekasan area both for security needs or spiritual needs such as sending statues and so on. Thus after the JAMBURINGIN kingdom was established (in the Proppo District area west of Pamekasan city) under the rule of Majapahit (early 16th century) the development of the Pamekasan area began to be carried out by people including the construction of temples (at that time the kings in Madura especially Jamburingin were still Buddhist) Initially the Jamburingin palace temple would be built in a place quite far from the city of Jamburingin. Therefore the temple in question was not built. Until now where the temple was going to be built but failed the place is now called "CANDHI BURUNG" (Bird in Madurese means failure). Candhi Burung Village is currently one of the villages in Poppo District which is located close to Jamburingin Village (The name Jamburingin which used to be the name of a kingdom is now the name of one of the villages in Proppo District Pamekasan) Then the kings of Jaburingin (descendants of Majapahit) built a temple to the east of the Jamburingin palace in GAYAM village (approximately 2 kilometers to the east of the Jamburingin palace). Until now the people of Gayam village (including Proppo village) still call the place "CANDI GAYAM". Currently the place is a thicket but it is still visible that a temple was once built there. Especially after the discovery of "CAVED BRICKS" which are estimated to be the walls of the Gayam temple. Thus the shipment of statues from Majapahit to the Jamburingin palace was not lifted at all after arriving at Talang port. The residents at that time could only lift a few hundred meters from the beach. Therefore the rulers of the Jamburingin palace decided to build a temple in that place. But not long after that Islam (a new religion) began to spread in the Pamekasan area and was well received by the residents. Therefore the temple on Talang beach was not realized either. The statues sent by Majapahit were abandoned by people disappeared buried by time and were indeed completely buried into the Earth buried in the ground. Email: avalokitesvaracandi@hotmail.co.id

Awakening Hear		The Awakening Heart Sangha is a group of people dedicated to the Buddhist practice of mindfulness. Mindfulness is the process of awakening to each moment so that we might experience life in deeper and more meaningful ways. If we can be present in each moment, we will have the ability to see things as they really are, which in turn will water the seeds of joy and peace within us. The primary instrument used to cultivate mindfulness is the simple, yet profound practice of following our breath. There are no obligations for participating in our weekly sessions. You need not be a Buddhist and there are no expectations for attendance. Presence of each participant is regarded as a gift to the Sangha, for which it is grateful. The Awakening Heart Sangha offers those interested in mindful living an opportunity to deep their practice through meditation, mindful discussion and listening, and interaction with other practitioners. The Awakening Heart Sangha meets every Monday at 7 p.m. at The Center in <a href="http://www.awakeningheartsangha.org/dir.htm">Bartlett, IL</a>. Each meeting consists of an hour of meditation - combining both sitting and walking meditation in the tradition of Thich Nhat Hanh. We follow this hour of meditation with a Dharma discussion. For more information on the format, please see the detailed description. For more information, please use our <a href="http://www.awakeningheartsangha.org/contact.htm">contact form</a>.

We meet regularly at our Buddha Vihara to preach promote and advance the spiritual teachings of Buddhist faith based on the book “Buddha & His Dhamma” by Dr. B.R. Ambedkar and other schools of Buddhism practicing the religious observances teaching meditation and doctrines associated with that faith.or maybe you’re a business with a mission to describe. Brief History Ambedkar Mission was originally started in Vancouver Canada in 1978 as Ambedkar Memorial Association. After one year Mr. Darshan Chaudhary moved from Vancouver to Toronto in June 1979 and Ambedkar Mission was started in the same year with the main objective of propagating the religion and social philosophy of Babasaheb Dr. B.R Ambedkar. Yogesh Varhade was the chief organizer at that time. Late Mr. Nasib Sallan was its first president along with Ram Parkash Rahul as secretary Mohan Verdi as Treasurer late Jit Lal Jhamat as cultural secretary and Darshan Chaudhary as joint secretary. Gian Kaura Mark Vaharade and Banta Ram Jakkhu were other founding members of the mission. Weekly Buddha Puja (Service) started at the Toronto Maha Vihara in Scarborough as the mission did not have its own place of worship. In September 1979 three families of Nasib Sallan Mohan Verdi and Darshan Chaudhary embraced Buddhism at a ceremony held at Toronto Maha Vihara (Sri Lankan) Scarborough which was officiated by Venn. Bhadant Anand Kausalyayan and Chander Bodhi from England Bhante Punna Ji Bhante Dhamika and Bhante Seelam of Toronto Maha Vihara. At that time a talk on the essence of Buddhism by Venn. Bhante Anand Kausalyyan was also arranged at the University of Toronto. In April 1980 Dr. B.R. Ambedkar birthday was celebrated in Toronto for the first time and David Weatherhead M.P. Scarborough west attended the ceremony with message sent by the Minister of multiculturalism federal govt. Ottawa. Ambedkar Mission participated in the first Buddha Jayanti (Birthday) organized at the City Hall by newly constituted Toronto Buddhist Federation of which the Ambedkar Mission was the member along with other forty Buddhist Organizations-temples. At that occasion the Mission distributed five hundreds copies of the booklet “Buddha and the future of his religion” by Dr. B.R Ambedkar. In 1981 late Jit Lal Jhamat Parkash Rahul and Gian Kaura along with their families were also initiated into Buddhism at the Diksha Day in October. From this time onward mission had three annual functions regularly every year namely Dr. B.R Ambedkar’s birthday in April and Parinirvana day in December. In addition to these the mission likewise every year celebrated Buddha’s birthday organized by Toronto Buddhist Federation which later on transferred itself into the Buddhist Council of Canada. In that year Mohan Verdi also financed the publication of the book on the life of Babasaheb Ambedkar in Punjabi for Punjabi readers. Ambedkar Mission Inc. was incorporated by letters patent issued by the Province Of Ontario on September 23rd 1982 and Supplementary Letters Patent were issued on April 7th 2006 to change the corporate name to Ambedkar Mission and to change the objects of thereof to accord with objects set forth herein as follows to advance the Buddhist faith (Dhamma) by: Practicing preaching and teaching its religious tenets doctrines observances and cultural based on the book “Buddha and his Dhamma” by Dr. B.R. Ambedkar and other schools of Buddhism. Establishing maintaining and supporting a temple or mission with services conducted in accordance with its associated tenets and doctrines; Supporting and maintaining missionaries in order to propagate the faith; Establishing and maintaining a religious school of instructions for children youths and adults; and Maintaining a library of books audio and video cassettes photographs and other associated material that directly advance objects a –d above. At the celebration of Ambedkar’s birthday in 1982 the mission started a bi-annually magazine namely the outcry-voice for the oppressed. This magazine continued up to 1991 and then stopped due to lack of funds when the special last number “One Hundreds for Freedom” was published by the mission in the form of a small booklet. However the mission continued all the usual activities and annual functions at the Toronto Maha Vihara. In 1984 mission supported and An Ambedkarite scholar and director WRCP New Delhi to present the case of the untouchables before UN commission on human rights in Geneva.
Ayya Anuruddha		On behalf of our community we would like to express our heartfelt joy and gratitude for your tireless support and encouragement on the Path. For many years you have reached out to help us with bhikkhuni projects requisites and travel expenses. And this month again we received your spontaneous offering of dana – which arrived soon after we completed our 10th anniversary as a Theravada bhikkhuni monastery. Sadhu Sadhu Sadhu Anumodana! It so happens that during this time our forest is being ravaged by the destructive tent caterpillars so we really felt the stream of your kindness coming from afar to renew and uplift our spirits. We also give thanks for your many years of commitment to the growth and sustainability of the Bhikkhuni Sangha in this new millenium. Your generosity as a leadership alliance raising awareness and support creates a field of goodness for bhikkhunis around the world. Although we may face many challenges in sustaining the female monastic presence for Theravada women your faith in our Dhamma work acts as a beacon of light that helps to strengthen and bless our communities. May whatever joy and goodness arise from our practice bring forth the riches of the Path in your lives for your well-being and happiness. May your hearts be filled with peace.
Ayya Canda		I just want to express my sincere gratitude for all the work you do in supporting Bhikkhunis and nuns. It is deeply moving to hear how you spend the incoming donations and that so much of them go directly to the nuns.In particular may I again thank you for the support you were able to give to me personally ie my return flight to California this year. The journey came at a pivotal time on my path and provided me the much needed and sustaining sense of being part of a global sangha. I felt a deep connection to the sisters there to the extent that Ayyas Anandabodhi and Santacitta became additional advisers to Anukampa Bhikkhuni Project in the UK! I am also delighted to be returning next year to spend the majority of the winter retreat with them helping me ensure a healthy balance between service and solitude.Such exchange plays a vital role in strengthening the Bhikkhuni Sangha at this relatively new stage especially when many of us have little access to elder sisters on the path.

Ayya Santussik		We received the dana for the upcoming ordination–anumodana! We so much appreciate the work you are doing to help the bhikkhuni sangha grow and flourish. It is humbling and heartening to have friends in the Dhamma supporting us as we work to awaken–not only for ourselves but for all those who will benefit from the presence of fully ordained female monastics in the world.

In 1996 she joined a Kriya yoga-based center where she deepened her meditation practice and made spiritual development the central theme of her life. In 2002 she received a Masters of Divinity degree after completing a four-year interfaith seminar program to become a minister. The program emphasized meditation study of the major world religions meticulous ethical conduct and development of the skills required in ministry such as spiritual guidance counseling support for the ill and dying teaching and conducting ceremonies. In 1999 Ayya Santussika made her first trip to Thailand to visit her son who had ordained there as a monk in Ajahn Chah’s international monastery Wat Pah Nanachat. As a guest at the monastery and mother of a monk she was able to spend a lot of time with the monks and learn from many of Ajahn Chah’s students. Over the years she traveled to Thailand once or twice each year to stay in various monasteries learning from master teachers including Ajahn Jayasaro Ajahn Anan Ajahn Dtun Luang Ta Maha Boowa and Ajahn Pannavaddho. During those years she also visited Abhayagiri Buddhist Monastery many times and in 2003 formally became a student of Ajahn Pasanno.

Bali Buddhist		Much attention has been given to how far west Buddhism extended in ancient times. The most westerly Buddhist monument that can be is the foundations of a large stupa in the south east corner of the ancient citadel of Khiva in Turkmenistan. Small communities of Buddhists may have existed beyond this but if they did they would have been insignificant isolated and exceptional. We can say therefor that the outer edge of Buddhism in the west was what is now eastern Iran. But how far to the east did Buddhism spread its gentle and civilizing influence? To the outer islands of Indonesia to Australia or perhaps beyond? In the 1920's a superb bronze bust of the Buddha was found on Sulawesi one of the larger islands that make up Indonesia. This is the eastern most point that any Buddhist antiquity has ever been found. There is though no evidence of an enduring Buddhist presence either on Sulawesi or beyond it; no ruined temples or monasteries no inscriptions or references to it in the historical records. However only a few hundred miles south west of Sulawesi is the small island of Bali where archeological epigraphically and literary evidence shows that Buddhism existed along side Hinduism for about seven hundred years.

Bamboo Sangha		Reverence For Life Aware of the suffering caused by the destruction of life, I am committed to cultivating the insight of interbeing and compassion and learning ways to protect the lives of people, animals, plants, and minerals. I am determined not to kill, not let others kill, and not to support any act of killing in the world, in my thinking, or in my way of life. Seeing that harmful actions arise from anger, fear, greed, and intolerance, which in turn come from dualistic and discriminative thinking, I will cultivate openness, non-discrimination, and non-attachment to views in order to transform violence, fanaticism, and dogmatism in myself and in the world. 02 True Happiness Aware of the suffering caused by exploitation, social injustice, stealing, and oppression, I am committed to practicing generosity in my thinking, speaking, and acting. I am determined not to steal and not to possess anything that should belong to others; and I will share my time, energy, and material resources with those who are in need. I will practice looking deeply to see that the happiness and suffering of others are not separate from my own happiness and suffering; that true happiness is not possible without understanding and compassion; and that running after wealth, fame, power and sensual pleasures can bring much suffering and despair. I am aware that happiness depends on my mental attitude and not on external conditions, and that I can live happily in the present moment simply by remembering that I already have more than enough conditions to be happy. I am committed to practicing Right Livelihood so that I can help reduce the suffering of living beings on Earth and reverse the process of global warming. 03 True Love Aware of the suffering caused by sexual misconduct, I am committed to cultivating responsibility and learning ways to protect the safety and integrity of individuals, couples, families, and society. Knowing that sexual desire is not love, and that sexual activity motivated by craving always harms myself as well as others, I am determined not to engage in sexual relations without mutual consent, true love, and a deep, long-term commitment. I resolve to find spiritual support for the integrity of my relationship from family members, friends, and sangha with whom there is support and trust. I will do everything in my power to protect children from sexual abuse and to prevent couples and families from being broken by sexual misconduct. Seeing that body and mind are interrelated, I am committed to learn appropriate ways to take care of my sexual energy and to cultivate the four basic elements of true love – loving kindness, compassion, joy, and inclusiveness – for the greater happiness of myself and others. Recognizing the diversity of human experience, I am committed not to discriminate against any form of gender identity or sexual orientation. Practicing true love, we know that we will continue beautifully into the future. 04 Loving Speech and Deep Listening Aware of the suffering caused by unmindful speech and the inability to listen to others, I am committed to cultivating loving speech and compassionate listening in order to relieve suffering and to promote reconciliation and peace in myself and among other people, ethnic and religious groups, and nations. Knowing that words can create happiness or suffering, I am committed to speaking truthfully using words that inspire confidence joy, and hope. When anger is manifesting in me, I am determined not to speak. I will practice mindful breathing and walking in order to recognize and to look deeply into my anger. I know that the roots of anger can be found in my wrong perceptions and lack of understanding of the suffering in myself and in the other person. I will speak and listen in a way that can help myself and the other person to transform suffering and see the way out of difficult situations. I am determined not to spread news that I do not know to be certain and not to utter words that can cause division or discord. I will practice Right Diligence to nourish my capacity for understanding, love, joy and inclusiveness and gradually transform anger, violence, and fear that lie deep in my consciousness. 05 Nourishment and Healing Aware of the suffering caused by unmindful consumption, I am committed to cultivating good health, both physical and mental, for myself, my family, and my society by practicing mindful eating, drinking, and consuming. I will practice looking deep into how I consume the Four Kinds of Nutriments, namely edible foods, sense impressions, volition, and consciousness. I am determined not to gamble, or to use alcohol, drugs, or any other products which contain toxins, such as certain websites, electronic games, TV programs, films, magazines, books, and conversations. I will practice coming back to the present moment to be in touch with the refreshing, healing and nourishing elements in me and around me, not letting regrets and sorrow drag me back into the past nor letting anxieties, fear, or craving pull me out of the present moment. I am determined not to try to cover up loneliness, anxiety, or other suffering by losing myself in consumption. I will contemplate interbeing and consume in a way that preserves peace, joy, and well-being in my body and consciousness, and in the collective body and consciousness of my family, my society and the Earth.

BAO- Buddhist		Tam Bao Buddhist Temple was established in 1993 by the Buddhist members of the Vietnamese community residing in the Greater Tulsa area. English language services began in the spring of 1998 and an English Language Service Group independent of the Vietnamese Sangha evolved. In April 1999 the Sangha formally accepted the following mission statement: "We are a diverse democratically organized group who come together to learn and practice the teachings of the Buddha in a nonsectarian format." Visiting the Temple: English language services are held on Sundays beginning promptly at 9:00am and lasting for about an hour and a half. All are welcome! The Temple is the larger building toward the back of the property not the smaller house you pass on your right in the driveway. Leave your shoes on the shoe rack outside the back door and enter. As you enter you should find a box with folders which contain our liturgy -- take one! Then find a seat either on a cushion on the floor or in a chair in the back wherever you're most comfortable. While waiting for the service to begin you may want to read the supplementary information in the back of the folder. You'll find an explanation of many of the items on the altar a glossary of some Buddhist terms and some Buddhist prayers and sutras. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dress Code: We do not have a formal dress code. However please keep in mind that Tam Bao is a temple a sacred space where religious rituals are performed. While our sangha is non-denominational and follows no specific tradition we ask our members to respect tradition and dress accordingly. While informal attire is acceptable shorts Bermuda shorts miniskirts bare midriffs and tank tops are not considered proper attire. Please use common sense and consideration. Shoes should be left on the shoe rack outside the door. In addition please consider that in most Buddhist traditions one should not extend the leg pointing toward the altar while sitting on the floor; it is considered rude. Tam Bao: "Tam Bao" is Vietnamese for "Three Jewels" and refers to the three jewels of Buddhism: the Buddha the Dharma and the Sangha. At each service we chant: Buddham saranam gacchami Dharmam saranam gacchami Sangham saranam gacchami which is Pali for: I take refuge in the Buddha I take refuge in the Dharma I take refuge in the Sangha.

Andy-Pike		Opened to Dhamma (with little understanding) when i was a whipper snapper. Started practicing meditation (with a tiny bit more understanding) in 1990 whilst grappling with the dark night of "I've had enough". Finally got the hang of giving myself a break under the compassionate guidance of the late Ven Myokyo-ni (Rinzai Zen Buddhist nun), just before the twin towers event (9/11). Continued with Zen practice (mostly Soto) until 2005 whereby I dedicated myself to Samatha/Vipassana practice until 2024. During this period I was working as a Physiotherapist (Physical Therapist). Published a book in 2022 called: "Intention & Non-Doing in Therapeutic Bodywork" (Singing Dragon publishers). I now teach Dhamma in the Sunshine Coast region of Queensland, Australia and develop with our Sangha during weekly gatherings.

Sakya Buddhist		The Sakya Thinley Rinchen Ling Buddhist Centre was the first Buddhist centre in Bristol and also the first centre belonging to the Sakya tradition of Tibetan Buddhism in the UK. It was founded in 1977 by Lama Jampa Thaye at the request of his teacher, Karma Thinley Rinpoche. Rinpoche named the Centre ‘Thinley Rinchen Ling’, after His Holiness the 41st Sakya Trizin’s grandfather, the 39th Sakya Trizin, Dakshul Thinley Rinchen. Translated into English, the Centre’s name means ‘place of precious Buddha activity’. ‘Sakya Trizin’ means ‘throne-holder’ and refers to the supreme head of the Sakya tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. Endowed with this rather grand title, Sakya Thinley Rinchen Ling, the Centre began its life in 1977 in a modest basement flat in Clifton, attracting a few local people interested in Buddhism. Now occupying a beautiful, spacious house located opposite St Andrews’ Park, it has introduced a great number of men and women from Bristol and beyond to the Buddhist spiritual path. The Centre houses a traditional Tibetan shrine room which was blessed with a magnificent new life-sized Buddha statue, specially made for us in Nepal in 2015. Lama Jampa Thaye, the Centre’s spiritual director, teaches frequently at the Centre. Since its inception he has given numerous teachings from the Sakya tradition and is recognised as one of the few Westerners authorised to teach Tibetan Buddhism to the highest level. He has built up a large following of students at the Centre who have received many public and private teachings from him. For 40 years, the Centre has hosted teachings from some of the most important Tibetan lamas alive today. His Holiness Sakya Trichen, (the 41st Sakya Trizin) has bestowed many profound and powerful teachings to numerous people at the Centre. His sons, Ratna Vajra Rinpoche, the current and 42nd Sakya Trizin, and Gyana Vajra Rinpoche, eminent lamas in their own right, are also frequent visitors. Alongside these major teachings by Lama Jampa Thaye and other renowned teachers, the Centre also has a full programme of events, including introductory evenings, study groups, pujas (group meditations) and Tibetan classes.

Bauddha Shiksh		The ban persists because ignorance persists. Thus to lift the ban we at DorjeShugden.com are committed to spreading the truth about Dorje Shugden. We have compiled this list of contacts both postal and email for you to write to. Write about the ban and its background why you believe the ban is wrong and why you practise Dorje Shugden. Teach people about Dorje Shugden’s enlightened nature so they can come to their own logical conclusions about him. If you’re not much of a letter writer then just take one from our precompiled letters here and email it off to anyone on the list. And yes we have Chinese addresses here as China supports the practice of Dorje Shugden and treats all religious practices in Tibet equally. As always be respectful and show compassion to those who support the ban. Ignorance of a law does not negate the law but oftentimes circumstances we are not fully aware of may compel people to act in certain ways.

Betagi Sharboj		Inter-Univesity Research Insitutute Corporation National Institutes for the Humanities Ryukoku Research Center for Interdisciplinary Studies in Religion Science and Humanities In many studies it has been pointed out that Indian society has undergone radical changes since the 1990s. This is seen in the political sphere in the spread and the deepening of democracy. In terms of the economy changes are remarkable in the development of the market economy improvements in living conditions and widening of economic gaps which is one of the negative impacts of such economic growth. Societally this has been expressed through the appearance and rise of various social movements. Culturally and religiously it has been expressed through a parallel rise in assertion of identities by diverse communities. These changes can be seen as the results of embryonic fundamental changes in thought and values of people in India and South Asia
Beth Upton		I have been teaching meditation since 2014 and the more I teach the more I love it. If there is one thing that I have learned in my years teaching it is that we are all different with our own strengths and weaknesses. In order to teach well I need to get to know each student individually guiding each to tap into their own innate wisdom offering instruction that fits each student’s unique circumstances. /The ten years I spent as a Buddhist nun afforded me the great privilege of being able to practise meditation in much depth and detail. I was blessed with masterful teachers and all of the support I could have hoped for. I spent five years in Myanmar training diligently in the Theravada tradition under the guidance of Pa Auk Sayadaw. I then spent a further five years training in several other methods and spent many months doing long solo retreats in various caves and forests./The opportunity to practise meditation so comprehensively has been the greatest gift of my life. My passion is now to repay that debt of gratitude by providing the same opportunity to others. Since deciding to disrobe in 2018 I have been on a sharp and wonderful learning curve reintegrating the challenges of western lay life into my Dhamma practice. Through this process not only has my appreciation of the Dhamma grown deeper but also my understanding of the students I am teaching. /As well as teaching meditation I am also enthusiastic about building community. Over the past years I have been leading Sanditthika Meditation Community in the caves of Almeria Southern Spain./To book a meeting for personal instruction please follow this link to the appointment page of my website and book an appointment from there.

Brett Miller		Lay practitioner of the Dhamma. Having a body which has survived two primary Cancers and now Kidney Disease as well as some Neurological Challenge, has provided an Insight into the fact that the body-mind this very life is Responsible for, is more inconstant than once believed, and there is no one in charge of it. I must take responsibility for it, and since the Mind is the Forerunner to the body my own Suffering depends on the care of this very mind. 51 years of life have proved that the greatest discovery of mankind has to be the Buddhadhamma. So i give thanks, and am available to other Practitioners for a friend and a smile. Practice well friends. We take a look, then make a change.

See below for Autobio Talk on 70th birthday 2017 Practising as a lay person: Bhante Bodhidhamma Bhante Bodhidhamma I began life in 1947 as Peter Ridley and was brought up a Roman Catholic. In my early teenage years I joined a junior seminary to train as a priest. I would not have found the Buddha's path without that foundation. In the late seventies I began to meditate in the Soto Zen tradition with my first Buddhist teacher Vajira Bailey in Birmingham. In August 1979 I underwent Jukai and committed myself to Buddhism as a Zen Buddhist at Throssel Hole Priory in Northumberland. During this period I was living in Birmingham where a Burmese monk Ven. Dr. Rewata Dhamma had set up a Vihara. I began to visit and out of interest joined a course of meditation in the vipassana technique with Achaan Sumedho now the Chief Monk of the Thai Forest Tradition based at Amaravati Buddhist Centre near Hemel Hempstead. That experience convinced me that Vipassana was to be the technique that most serviced my needs. Ven. U Janaka Sayadaw Ven. U Janaka Sayadaw Soon after I met my core teacher Sayadaw U Janaka of Burma (Myanmar). He is one of the main teachers in the Mahasi Tradition. I went to spend six months with him in Yangon. It had a deep effect upon me. I returned to my former job but I began to have thoughts about joining the Sangha in order to do even longer periods of intensive meditation.


Bhante Dhammap		Bhante Dhammapala In the mid-1960s while in high school Bhante Dhammapala discovered the Dhamma. Or rather the Dhammas as there are a multitude of them. He found commonality with many of the teachings and discovered at the age of seventeen that he was Buddhist. He also discovered a hunger for more knowledge and a greater understanding. So he studied. He studied the many many many versions of what was set out as the Dhamma. These versions he found in various translations of the Tipitika and the commentaries on the Tipitika and the summaries of the commentaries and the commentaries on the summaries and the sub-commentaries on the commentaries and so on and so on and so on. And he found a lot of different ideas on what “Buddhism” is and is not. On what the Dhamma is and is not. Bhante not only read he sought out teachers and academics and practitioners to engage in discussion. He encountered a vast selection of teachings all attributed to the Buddha or one of many Buddhas or a Bodhisatva or an Arahant or somebody. These teachings are extensive; these teachings are varied and discordant; these teachings lack internal consistency; and these teachings lack congruence with modern reality. Furthermore there was a lack of agreement about the most basic most important aspects of the Dhamma. For many practitioners the problem seemed to be ignorance and the solution “Enlightenment.” For others the problem was “karma” and “rebirth and the solution was to earn merit. For most of the academics the problem was “mis-information” and/or an incorrect understanding of the teachings. It became clear to Bhante that the multitude of teachings are so extensive and so incompatible with each other and with modern that there was no way to consolidate them into a unified doctrine. There was no way to distill a cohesive effective practice from them. What Bhante eventually took away from all of this intellectual effort was the understanding that for the historical Buddha the “problem” is dukkhā. And the solution to the problem is the individual realization of the end of dukkhā.

Bhante Vilamar		We are honoured to invite you to Dhamma Sukha Meditation Center (DSMC) located in Iron County MO just outside of the town of Ironton. This is a different experience than usually found within the United States. Here you will learn a very practical meditation that can be easily carried over into daily life to help you in today's stress-filled world. During this kind of meditation it is not uncommon for you to momentarily see and experience actual relief from suffering and confirm a true understanding of how relief works. Perhaps you will deepen an already established personal practice. You might find for the first time that you can take the meditation off the pillow and carry it with you. Certainly you will discover a new depth of understanding the Buddhist teaching.

Bhavana House		Bhavana in Pali the ancient language of the Buddhist canon means meditation. In a fuller sense it means the unfolding and development of human potential supported by the cultivation of wisdom and compassion. Bhavana House a Dhamma (Dharma) sanctuary in the old north of Tel Aviv was established as a private initiative which derived from the understanding that Israel as a place of continuing existential conflict and tension is an optimal place for practising the meditative approach to life. Its aim was to offer an urban center that allows ongoing teaching inquiry and practice of the Buddhist path within the community in daily life. Bhavana House is a Regional Centre of the World Fellowship of Buddhists (WFB) in Israel. The centre offers appropriate conditions for meditation and study and facilitates:

Bhikkuni Dhama		hen my mother shaved her head I was 11 years old. In Thailand in 1956 if a woman shaved her head it was to become a mae chee (white robed nun). There was no ordination just receiving the eight precepts. My mother Ven. Voramai Kabilingh never thought of becoming a mae chee—she told her preceptor Pra Prommuni of Wat Bavornnives that she would be wearing light yellow—and so it was. She turned her house into a small nunnery where more and more young women joined her. I grew up in this monastic setting learning all of the chanting along with other nuns. So it is not a surprise that when I took ordination much later in life I was already fluent with the chanting. Venerable Voramai Kabilingh Dhammananda Bhikkhuni's mother Venerable Voramai Kabilingh Dhammananda Bhikkhuni’s mother In the following year 2500 BE [Buddhist Era the calendar used in Thailand] which a very important year for Buddhists I took the light yellow robe and took the precepts from my mother’s teacher at Wat Bavornnives. It was during summer vacation so I remained in the robe for 47 days until the school started in mid May. That was my first ordination. My education prepared me for ordination. I attended McMaster University in Hamilton Ontario Canada where I indulged myself in the study of Buddhism and was converted to a Feminist Buddhist through reading I.B. Horner. My Thesis was “A Comparative Study of Bhikkhuni Patimokkha of 6 Schools.” The Chinese language which I had studied while I was in India really became an asset as for a Ph.D. one needs to know at least two languages in addition to English. For me it was Chinese and Sanskrit—I took Sanskrit in the summer to fulfill the other language requirement.

Blooming Deser		This Sangha has been formed in order to offer those who wish the opportunity to learn to live in mindfulness. We will use the teachings of Zen Master <a href="http://www.iamhome.org/tnh.htm">Thich Nhat Hanh</a> poet peace activist teacher and author of over 30 books including The Miracle of Mindfulness and Peace Is Every Step. We meet every week. We practice both sitting and walking meditation. We learn the Five Mindfulness Trainings of the Order of Interbeing and discuss how they relate to us. We learn to use <a href="http://www.bloomingdesertlotus.org/gathas.php">gathas </a> or mindfulness verses (as described in the books Present Moment Wonderful Moment and Stepping Into Freedom) to assist us in preserving our mindfulness throughout our daily lives. We have a lesson or Dharma Talk by one of our members or a guest speaker each week as well as a Dharma Discussion during which time mindful listening and loving speech will be practiced. Once every month we take part in a <a href="http://www.bloomingdesertlotus.org/mindful_meals.php">Mindful Meal</a> . This is vegetarian in nature allowing each member of the Sangha to bring one warm or cold plate/bowl of food to be shared by the group. These can be the most simple of offerings (this is not a cooking contest - a bowl of plain white rice is perfectly acceptable and welcome). This not only gives all of us an opportunity to share offerings with each other but the practice of eating mindfully is extremely beneficial to our bodies as well as the world around us. The color green has been chosen as a visual gatha. Green is the color of foliage growth and life. It may remind us of our most precious Earth. As part of our practice is mindful consumption we can use the presence of this color to keep us mindful of our environmental responsibilities. Sangha members are invited to dress in a calming shade of green. If it is a subdued tone it will not be a distraction to anyone during meditation but instead be a bell of mindfulness to each other. Each member will be asked to take an active role within the Sangha. This includes planning and facilitating weekly lessons and activities. Each petal of the lotus is essential to the growth beauty and the stability of the flower. Each member of our Sangha is just as important.

Blue Mountain		The mission of the Blue Mountain Center of Meditation, founded in 1961 by Eknath Easwaran, is to teach his eight-point program of passage meditation to enable ordinary people to translate their highest ideals into daily living within the context of any religious tradition or none. During four decades of active spiritual teaching, Easwaran directed the activities of the Blue Mountain Center, including the retreats program, the press, and the spiritual community called Ramagiri Ashram. Since Easwaran's passing, in 1999, his wife Christine has continued his leadership with the help of his students.
Blue Mountain		For many people the most obvious feature of the BMLS is that we are a unique and dynamic approach to an engaged contemporary Buddhist community. Those who know us can also see clearly our passionate desire to live the way of the Buddha and to practice the Dharma authentically and intensely. Our entire history has been characterized by our efforts to translate the essentials of tradition into ways of living that are enlightening liberating and transforming for us today. The question is how are we called to live here and now? We believe that we have embraced and harmonized with the dynamic insights and spiritual treasures of the classical Buddhist tradition all the more deeply by continuously distilling its wisdom in the light of knowledge and experience that is readily available to us.

Bodhi Monaster		Bodhi Monastery is a distinctive Buddhist monastery located in the rolling hills of Sussex County, New Jersey. Set on 188 acres of verdant woodlands and fields, amidst herds of deer, the monastery offers a fresh yet ancient perspective on the practice of Buddhism in today’s world. The origins of Bodhi Monastery lie in the comprehensive, non–sectarian vision of Master Yin–Shun, the foremost Chinese scholar–monk of modern times, whose work has inspired a Buddhist intellectual renaissance in Taiwan. In line with the vision of Master Yin–Shun, Bodhi Monastery aims to promote the study and practice of Buddhism as an integral whole rather than to focus on the teachings of a particular Buddhist sect or branch. Bodhi Monastery aims to promote the study and practice of Buddhism as an integral whole, with special focus on the clear and direct teachings of ancient Pali Buddhism and their philosophical and ethical elaboration in the early Mahayana. The monastery thus represents a unique, spiritually enriching synthesis of these two major Buddhist traditions.
Bodhi Oak Zen		Bodhi Oak Zen Sangha is a group of people who practice meditation together, and who endeavor to take the peaceful mind of meditation into all our activities, finding an inner refuge of stability in a troubled world.

Bodhi Tree Dha		Bodhi Tree Dhamma Center is a suburban meditation center in Pinellas County, on Florida's central gulf coast. Our grounds feature a meditation hall and bookstore, areas for outdoor walking meditation, and a specimen of the Bodhi tree, <i>Ficus religiosa</i>. BTDC opened in 1985 as a meeting place for the Florida West Coast Buddhist Society, a non-denominational Buddhist study group. It was founded in its present form with the help of the internationally recognized meditation teachers Venerable U Silananda (from Burma) and Venerable H. Gunaratana (from Sri Lanka). BTDC maintains a relationship with Abhayagiri Buddhist Monastery, in northern California. In 1993, a fund was established for the eventual purchase of land for a rural retreat center in west central Florida. The purpose of BTDC is the alleviation of suffering through the spread of the Dhamma, the teachings of the Buddha as preserved in the Pali canon and the Theravada traditions of southern Asia. Intensive retreats and classes are offered periodically, and regular meetings are held that include periods of Vipassana meditation and a talk on some aspect of Buddhism. The bookstore is open following scheduled events, and a mail order catalog is available on request. Although primarily Theravada in orientation, BTDC also hosts visits by teachers from other Buddhist traditions. Members of Bodhi Tree Dhamma Center come from many different backgrounds. Their involvement with Buddhism ranges from a casual interest to a wholehearted commitment to follow a traditional path. All are welcome. The Buddha stressed that people must realize the truth of his teachings for themselves -- they must "come and see".

Bodhinyana Bud		Bodhinyana monastery is nestled amidst the rolling hills of the Darling Range near the small town of Serpentine Western Australia. The monastery began its growth in 1983. Named after the great teacher Ajahn Chah Bodhinyana means the ‘wisdom of enlightenment’. With the generous help and support of our dedicated lay community the monks have built Bodhinyana to establish a home beneath the trees in harmony with nature. All of these facilities and the people who run them are established to help people to practice the Eightfold Path taught by the Buddha some 2600 years ago.
Bodhinyanarama		It was founded in 1985. It is a monastic residence of the Theravada tradition of Buddhism set in a 51 hectare Native Reserve of History Bodhinyanarama is associated with the many branch monasteries of Venerable Ajahn Chah (1918-1992). In his home province in north-eastern Thailand, Ajahn Chah inspired many westerners by the simplicity of the traditional monastic lifestyle and by his clarity, wisdom, and compassionate humour. In 1977 he was invited to England by the English Sangha Trust to investigate the possibility of establishing a monastic presence in Britain. Finding the reception favorable he left his most senior western disciple, Ajahn Sumedho, and three other monks to establish a monastic community, first in London and later at Chithurst Monastery in West Sussex. In 1982 Ajahn Sumedho visited New Zealand and was encouraged to send monks to establish a monastery near Wellington. A group of devoted Buddhists formed a charitable association and in 1985 invited two monks from the United Kingdom to live in New Zealand. A superb location, a thickly-wooded, easily accessible valley near Wellington was soon purchased. Since then, much energy and commitment by many people have created the beautiful buildings, gardens, and forest walks that comprise the monastery today.regenerating bush 29 kms from Wellington New Zealand.

Boston Karma K		Boston Karma Kagyu Study Group is affiliated with Karma Triyana Dharmachakra Monastery, the North American seat of His Holiness the 17th Gyalwang Karmapa Ogyen Trinley Dorje. Karma Kagyu (Tibetan: ཀརྨ་བཀའ་བརྒྱུད, Wylie: karma bka'-brgyud), or Kamtsang Kagyu (Tibetan: ཀརྨ་ཀཾ་ཚང་, Wylie: kar+ma kaM tshang), is a widely practiced and probably the second-largest lineage within the Kagyu school, one of the four major schools of Tibetan Buddhism.[1] The lineage has long-standing monasteries in Tibet, China, Russia, Mongolia, India, Nepal and Bhutan, with current centres in over 60 countries. The spiritual head of the Karma Kagyu is the Gyalwa Karmapa; the 2nd among the 10 Karmapas had been the principal spiritual advisors to successive emperors of China.[2] The Karma Kagyu are sometimes called the "Black Hat" lamas, in reference to the Black Crown worn by the Karmapa.
Boston Old Pat		All are welcome to join us at any time. Our regular sittings generally include two periods of sitting meditation with a period of walking meditation between. We then enjoy mindfully drinking tea and eating snacks together. After, we generally participate in reading from a work by Thich Nhat Hanh or another Buddhist teacher followed by Dharma discussion.

As a group, we keep ritual to a minimum and sit in silence to provide a space where we can support each other in meditation. Visiting teachers offer us the opportunity to study philosophies and practices that are common to all Buddhist traditions as well as instructions that may be unique to specific schools. Our group does not attempt to synthesize or promote these different views, only to make them available for interested students. Teachers typically give dharma talks at different times than our group meditations. Everyone is welcome to attend either the silent sits, the talks, or both.

Brecon Kadampa		THE OLD KADAMPA LINEAGE TO THE PRESENT NEW KADAMPA TRADITION Kadampa Buddhism is a Mahayana Buddhist school founded by the great Indian Buddhist Master Atisha (AD 982-1054). His followers are known as ‘Kadampas’. Ka refers to Buddha’s teachings, and dam to Atisha’s special Lamrim instructions known as ‘the stages of the path to enlightenment’. Kadampas, then, are practitioners who regard Buddha’s teachings as personal instructions and put them into practice by following the instructions of Lamrim. The Kadampa tradition was later promoted widely in Tibet by Je Tsongkhapa and his followers, who were known as the ‘New Kadampas’. Transforming daily activities into the path By integrating their knowledge of all Buddha’s teachings into their practice of Lamrim, and by integrating this into their everyday lives, Kadampa Buddhists are encouraged to use Buddha’s teachings as practical methods for transforming daily activities into the path to enlightenment. The great Kadampa Teachers are famous not only for being great scholars but also for being spiritual practitioners of immense purity and sincerity.

BuddhaField		About Buddhafield Buddhafield is a collaboration of Buddhists involved with the Triratna Buddhist Community: some of us are members of the Triratna Buddhist Order. We live all over the UK, but we run a programme of camping activities in the South of England, focused around the teaching and practice of Buddhism and Buddhist meditation. We are perhaps best known for organising our own Festival and for the Buddhafield Cafe, which goes to festivals and fairs like Glastonbury, Sunrise and The Green Gathering. As well as this, we run an annual programme of meditation retreat camps and we cultivate on our own land. The concept of a “Buddhafield”, or of “Buddhafields”, originates in the Mahayana Buddhist Sutras. In these Sutras, Buddhafields are planes of perfect beauty created by the compassionate action of a Buddha. As such they are an environment in which all conditions are perfectly conducive to spiritual practice and in which to gain Enlightenment. Each year Buddhafield adopts a theme. For 2024 we are exploring With Arms Wide Open. Buddhafield is a cult in the United States. It began in the 1980s in Hollywood, and continues in Hawaii today, often recruiting through yoga studios. The group has been described as a cult by some former members

		The basis for the Buddhist Association is to bring together Buddhist organizations in Norway in a nationwide joint organization and represent the members before the State so that we can apply for funding for Buddhist practice. This is a great expression of democratic tolerance and recognition of spiritual values in society. The majority of Buddhists in Norway have their origin in the Buddhist countries in Asia. A conservative estimate based on official statistics of immigrants and their descendants in Norway suggests that there are presently more than 38.000 Buddhists in this category. There are also several thousand Buddhists with a Western background among whom more than 2.000 are members of the Buddhist Federation of Norway or other Buddhist associations. The total number of Buddhists can be estimated to be at least 40.000. This constitute 0,77 % of the population of Norway which presently stands at 5,2 million.
Buddhist Assoc		The primary goals of the Association are: To provide people in the community an opportunity to learn authentic Buddhism. To provide a forum for those who are interested in exchanging their views on religious and philosophical issues with others. <b>Activity</b> The Association sponsors seminars on various subjects in Buddhism. Speakers are BALV members, invited Buddhist masters, scholars, or practitioners. The weekly Buddhism Forum has been conducted since May 1987. The Forum focuses on helping participants grasp the basic terminologies, concepts, and practices of Buddhism. The Association organizes trips to visit Buddhist masters, scholars, and monasteries.

Buddhist Churc		Our sect is called Jodo Shinshu Honganji Ha, or Nishi Honganji. Our Mother Temple and International Headquarters are located in Kyoto, Japan. We are also affiliated with the Buddhist Churches of America (B.C.A.), with headquarters in San Francisco, California. As a member of the Ogden Buddhist Church, you are joining the Sangha (Fellowship of Buddhists) in our efforts to support and follow the teachings of Jodo Shinshu Buddhism. As we enter the 21st century, Jodo Shinshu Buddhism is at a crossroads in its development and expansion in the United States of America. Although Jodo Shinshu has been in the United States since 1899, we are still in the beginning stages of truly becoming a part of the larger religious landscape of this country. Through the personal sacrifice and determination of the Japanese immigrants and their descendants our temple exists today. However, we now find ourselves living in a changed environment from that of our founders. To meet these ever changing needs, we must develop a new methodology by combining the sacrifice and determination of our pioneer members with new ideas, to ensure the continuation of Jodo Shinshu in our present community. Jodo Shinshu Buddhism has much to offer in teaching us about living a spiritually awakened life, in the midst of ordinary circumstances. To follow the Nembutsu path is to live a life of gratitude for Amida Buddha's infinite wisdom and compassion. Our Temple is here to help us understand how we may express appreciation for the wondrous gift of Shinjin bestowed upon us. Please check the calendar for specific dates and times of our services.

Buddhist Compa		Born in 1937, Dharma Master Cheng Yen renounced the lay life at the age of 25, to pursue the meaning and purpose of life after her father's sudden death due to a stroke. She took Venerable Master Yin Shun as her mentor, a prominent monk in contemporary Chinese Buddhism. Throughout her monastic life, Master Cheng Yen has been living out the words her Master gave her, “Work for Buddhism and for all living beings.” She has worked tirelessly to spread the Buddha's teachings and continues to carry out Tzu Chi's missions to benefit humanity and the world. Dharma Master Cheng Yen was born in Qingshui, a small town in Taichung County, Taiwan. As her father's brother was childless, she was adopted by him and his wife at a young age to raise as their own; this was a common practice at that time. At the age of seven, she experienced the air raids the Second World War inflicted on Japanese-occupied Taiwan. What she witnessed left a deep imprint on her young mind of the cruelty of war. As she grew up, she had many questions about life and its meaning.New York Branch

Buddhist Resea
Buddhist Retre		Perched on a ridge at the head of a valley in the Umkomaas river system in KwaZulu-Natal, the Buddhist retreat Centre looks out on a vista of indigenous valleys, forests and rolling hills receding like waves in the blue distance. Here, for more than twenty years people of all religions and none have come to experience peace and tranquillity. It is a gentle, sympathetic space where one can be still and get in touch with oneself and reflect on the things that crowd one's life. CNN featured the BRC as one of the 10 finest Meditation centres in the world. Paths threading the 300 acre property each bring their own revelation: follow the pine-scented path to the dam; walk past ancient cycads to the tracks of early Voortrekker wagons; discover an assegai-sharpening stone on a hillside; or point your feet towards the rocky outcrop that provides a perfect seat for contemplating the valley below. Nearby are the breeding sites of the exquisite, but rare Blue Swallow of which the Endangered Wildlife Trust has appointed the BRC a custodian. Their presence, together with the BRC's commitment to encouraging the indigenous biodiversity of the area, has led to the Centre being declared a Natural Heritage Site by former President Nelson Mandela. Integrated into this setting are the Centre's buildings, accommodation lodges and cottages, the dining room and office, a shop, a lecture and art studio, a library, and the meditation hall.

Buddhist Templ		The Buddhist Temple of Chicago (BTC) was founded by Rev. Gyomay M. Kubose on the South Side of Chicago as the Chicago Buddhist Church in October of 1944 as a non-sectarian temple with a new direction--the way of Oneness, a non-dualistic approach to Buddhism. In 1956 the Temple moved to the current address with the new name of Buddhist Temple of Chicago. As a uniquely independent temple, with no administrative ties to a headquarters of any other Buddhist sect, BTC has been free to express the Dharma teachings in a universal manner, encouraging the realization of the Suchness of all things and living fully in the Eternal Now. Although the founding members and succeeding generations are largely of Japanese descent, BTC was founded with the purpose of making Buddhism available to all Americans by presenting the teachings in Western terminology. Such teachings as the Six Paramitas, the Middle Path, Nembutsu, and Zen should be communicated in ways that can be easily understood and lived in everyday life. Still, there is no missionary spirit in Buddhism. Rather, the Buddhist way is for each individual to seek, learn and live his own unique, noble self.

Buddhistische		The earliest verifiable involvement with the Buddhist teachings of the Indian Pali canon probably began in Hamburg in 1879, when the doctor Dr. Harald Wiesendanger in the hotel?? the unofficial “Loge Isis” (named after the work “ Isis Unveiled ” by Helena Blavatsky) of the Theosophical Society TG (Theosophical Society), which was founded in New York in 1875 by, among others, the American Colonel Henry Steel Olcott (1832 -1907) and the German-Russian noblewoman Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (1831-1891), née Helena Petrovna Countess von Rottenstern-Hahn, and William Quan Judge (1851-1896). In the first years after the TG was founded in 1875, the focus was on research into occultism, but from around 1878 Olcott primarily propagated Buddhism in the TG and in 1880 Olcott and Blavatsky officially professed Buddhism in Sri Lanka and published for the first time in 1881 the “Buddhist Catechism” in Sinhala and English. In this “unofficial” lodge Isis and the subsequent official lodge Hamsa of the Theosophical Society Adyar in Germany, the members mainly dealt with the teachings of Indian and Ceylonese Buddhism until around 1894, but this was changed from 1895 onwards by the new head of the Theosophical Society Adyar, Annie Besant (1847-1933) should change, as she was more interested in neo-Hinduism. The first members of the Hamburg local group of the “Buddhist Society for Germany”, first mentioned in 1906, probably came from this theosophical environment and was founded on May 8, 1905 in Leipzig by the Indologist and Buddhist Dr. phil. Karl Berndhard Seidenstücker (1876-1936) was founded, whose wife was also a theosophist and whose teachings he had previously studied intensively. A predecessor association was founded in 1903 under the name “Buddhist Mission Association in Germany”, but had to be dissolved after a short time for various reasons. He subsequently founded the “Mahabodhi Central” in 1907, but it did not last long and on May 1, 1911, he founded the “German Branch of the “Mahabodhi Society”, which was the official representative of the “ Mahabodhi Society of India ” , which was founded in 1891 by the Sinhalese Anagarika Dharmapala in Colombo (Sri Lanka) and Calcutta (India). Due to internal conflicts within the group and accusations against him, Seidenstücker initially withdrew from public employment and commitment to Buddhism in Leipzig in April 1913, but then again from 1919 published the magazine “Buddhistische Weltspiegel” together with Georg Grimm with which he also founded “ The Buddhist Community for Germany” in Leipzig and Munich on July 20, 1921, which Grimm founded alone on September 26, 1924 in “Buddhist Lodge of the Three Jewels” and in July 1935 in Utting It was renamed the “ Old Buddhist Community ”, which was dissolved towards the end of 2002 due to a lack of interest and members.

		Buda y el Budismo (Traducción del artículo publicado por Diamond Way Teachings) El Buda fue un príncipe llamado Siddharta Gautama, quien vivió hace 2500 años en la región de la frontera entre la India y Nepal. Después de que él hubo reconocido hasta qué punto las personas sufren debido a la vejez, la enfermedad y la muerte, se alejó de la vida de lujo en la corte real y comenzó su búsqueda espiritual. Durante seis años estudió con los maestros espirituales de la alta cultura hindú de sus días y también practicó el ascetismo estricto. De esta manera aprendió diversos puntos de vista sobre el mundo y algunas meditaciones, pero nada que tuviera el poder de liberar realmente a todos los seres de todo el sufrimiento por completo. Por lo tanto, decidió sentarse bajo un árbol frondoso en Bodhgaya, un lugar en las tierras bajas del norte de la India, y permaneció allí durante seis días y noches en absorción espiritual profunda. En la mañana de un día de luna llena en mayo, reconoció que no existe una separación real entre la persona que experimenta y lo experimentado, que no hay ni un yo independiente, ni un mundo exterior que existe independientemente de quienes lo experimentan. Él experimentó que esta realización no llevaba hacia la nada, sino que la mente es muy rica por sí misma, lo que se muestra en ausencia de temor, gozo absoluto y amor sin discriminación. Desde entonces al príncipe Siddharta Gautama se le llamó “Buda, el Despierto”, despierto del sueño de la ignorancia y la confusión, de la misma forna en que usted se despierta de un sueño en la mañana. Aunque el sueño puede haber sido experimentado como muy intenso y muy real, después de despertar no queda nada de él excepto, quizás, un recuerdo. Exactamente de la misma manera podemos despertar de nuestra actual confusión, nuestra percepción dualista y nuestra creencia en la realidad. Entonces todas aquellas viejas formas de sufrimiento desaparecen al igual que el sueño cuando nos despertamos.

California Ten		In April 2015 Rev. Keisho VK Leary died. Many of you had met Keisho. I want to remember my old friend and provide an update on what is happening at California Tendai Monastery. For background on the relationship between Keisho and Monshin and the Tendai Buddhist Institute and California Tendai Monastery please go to tendai.org in a few days. There is a more in depth recounting at that site. Keisho’s personality character and vows were as a shugendo practitioner living in a monastery within Tendai’s purview. He was a devoted and disciplined practitioner who had a big heart but his demeaner was sometimes eccentric. Our relationship went back to 1994 when Shumon and I first returned from Japan to establish the temple in upstate New York. In many ways we were very different in our outlook and our practice. As previously mentioned he was a monastic shugendo practitioner while I am devoted to spreading the Dharma through a village temple system. Fortunately Tendai is an Ekayana school and we both respected the other as authentic practitioners of the Dharma fulfilling our mission to the same ends through different mechanisms. California Tendai Monastery (CTM) was a direct affiliate of Tendai Buddhist Institute at the request of his teachers as well as a result of our close relationship. Thus several months before his death I visited him for several days on Cobb Mountain in Northern California at CTM. There was no one who could succeed him. While there was another Tendai monk who was a lifelong friend of his that person was not able to succeed him at the monastery for logistical and personal reasons. As a result Keisho after discussions with his two daughters who own land as well as his sister adjacent to California Tendai Monastery asked that I take over the monastery upon his death and he deeded the land to me.
California Vip		<a href="http://www.dhamma.org/vipassan.htm">Vipassana</a>, which means to see things as they really are, is one of India's most ancient techniques of meditation. It was taught in India more than 2500 years ago as a universal remedy for universal ills, i.e., an <a href="http://www.dhamma.org/art.htm">Art of Living</a>. For those who are not familiar with Vipassana Meditation, an <a href="http://128.121.107.221/video/intro/vintro.htm">Introduction to Vipassana by Mr. Goenka</a> is available. The technique of Vipassana Meditation is taught at ten-day residential courses during which participants learn the basics of the method, and practice sufficiently to experience its beneficial results. There are no charges for the courses - not even to cover the cost of food and accommodation. All expenses are met by donations from people who, having completed a course and experienced the benefits of Vipassana, wish to give others the opportunity to also benefit.

Camas Meditati		We are a small, informal group that meets every Sunday evening to share in meditation together. The goals are to have an opportunity to learn meditation practices from several traditions, to experience the energy of meditating in a group, and to share our experiences with our own practice. Above all, I hope that the group will serve as encouragement for our own individual practice. There are many possible reasons for wanting to meditate. It is true that meditation can help us relax, help us cope with stress, encourage healthy balance and build calm and equanimity. Above all, however, meditation helps us to understand the process of our mind, and through that understanding begin to experience the true nature of the world and our place in it. Whatever reason you have for wanting to meditate we hope that you will find a place that you can share with others on the path. If you live close to us (Camas / Washougal / Vancouver Washington, in the Portland Metro area) we hope that you will consider joining us. Absolute beginners or seasoned meditators welcome! We meet every Sunday at Rushing Water Yoga in Downtown Camas. Please arrive by 7:00pm prompt. No need to let us know you're coming, newcomers and the curious are always welcome - and it's free. The yoga studio is at 417 NE Birch St., Camas, WA 98671. See <a href="http://www.rushingwateryoga.com/">www.rushingwateryoga.com</a> for a map and directions.

Cambridge Amar		Cambridge Amaravati Group grew from a few local Buddhists who were interested in the teachings from Amaravati Buddhist monastery near Hemel Hempstead. They meet fortnightly on Sunday evenings in the members homes to meditate together for about one hour with a brief Buddhist ceremony beforehand and tea and a chat afterwards. The type of meditation practiced is vipassana or insight meditation. The group functions as a way for meditators to come together rather than as a taught class and is open and sociable. Over the years people have joined who are interested in different forms of vipassana meditation or in different Buddhist traditions altogether. The group also acts as a contact point for people interested in visiting Amaravati to find out more directly about this sort of meditation and Buddhist way of life. : Central Cambridge Cambridgeshire UK Tradition: Theravada Affiliation: Amaravati Buddhist Monastery UK Phone: 07754 588077 Contact: Dan Jones

Cambridge Dzog		The Dzogchen Center is a community of Buddhists, led by spiritual director Lama Surya Das, who are dedicated to a wiser, more peaceful and beautiful world for one and all. Together we meditate, chant, pray, practice self-inquiry and yoga. We strive mindfully to enact a wise and loving way of being and doing, serene within yet actively engaged in this turbulent world. This is the altruistic Bodhisattva way of wisdom and compassion. Lama Surya Das is one of the foremost Western Buddhist meditation teachers and scholars, one of the main interpreters of Tibetan Buddhism in the West, and a leading spokesperson for the emerging American Buddhism. The Dalai Lama affectionately calls him “The Western Lama.” Surya has spent over forty-five years studying Zen, vipassana, yoga, and Tibetan Buddhism with the great masters of Asia, including the Dalai Lama’s own teachers, and has twice completed the traditional three-year meditation cloistered retreat at his teacher’s Tibetan monastery. He is an authorized lama and lineage holder in the Nyingmapa School of Tibetan Buddhism, and a close personal disciple of the leading grand lamas of that tradition. He is the founder of the Dzogchen Center in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Over the years, Surya has brought many Tibetan lamas to this country to teach and start centers and retreats. As founder of the Western Buddhist Teachers Network with the Dalai Lama, he regularly helps organize its international Buddhist Teachers Conferences. He is also active in interfaith dialogue and charitable projects in low-income countries. In recent years, Lama Surya has turned his efforts and focus towards youth and contemplative education initiatives, what he calls “True higher education and wisdom for life training.”Welcome to the Dzogchen Center Cambridge Through our root teacher, <A href="http://www.cambridgedzogchen.org/whoweare.html#surya">Lama Surya Das,</A> his associate teacher, <A href="http://www.cambridgedzogchen.org/whoweare.html#john">Lama John Makransky,</A> and other authorized teachers, the Center provides the essential teachings and transmissions of the Dzogchen lineage of Tibetan Buddhism in forms appropriate for Western culture.

Canada Five Wi		Lama Jamyang Lodro is one of those rare Dharma teachers that deeply developed their own practice before starting to teach. He teaches according to the needs of each individual and provides support for spiritual development and healing of the mind and body. Lama Jamyang was born in Tibet. He studied in Larung Gar Buddhist Academy, his whole life is devoted to practice and helping others. Five Wisdoms Temple was opened in June 2016. It was established as a place to learn and practice Dharma, Vajrayana Tibetan Buddhism in particular, and Tibetan Yoga. The notion of Five Wisdoms comes from Buddha Shakyamuni’s teachings. Five Wisdoms refers to five different types of knowledge. These five can be of two kinds, one is the inner wisdom, which means Buddhists teachings, and another is outer teachings, which is regular worldly knowledge and common teachings for all people. These are – art, languages, logic, medicine and science. This temple was named Five Wisdoms for two reasons; the first reason is that lama Jamyang studied in Five Wisdoms (Wuming) Buddhist Academy in Seda in Tibet, and second - is that that through these wisdoms you can do Dharma practice and attain the final result.

Cassidy171		To Know!
Cos		Hey
Cathy-Lewis		My Philosophy From a physicist's perspective, everything is one. Through your mind, you create your world. Meditation trains the mind so one can wisely attend to all thoughts and feelings in a way that brings about loving and compassionate actions - free of burden and self blame. Love quiets the mind and elevates the spirit to a purpose higher than your personal narrative. To heal shame or feelings of responsibility when tragedy happens, you must first quiet the narrative voices in your head. Remember your basic goodness and be a living example of the goodness of your dearly departed loved one. Meditation in the face of grief is a medication the world should have access to. When a close loved one dies, you may feel unable to avoid the cascading thoughts, feelings, and actions. Some people would rather do anything other than be alone with their thoughts, and this is amplified with grief. To become aware of your own thoughts and feelings is a powerful shift in any phase of life. "Healing" happens through coming to terms with the way things are, and befriending something like pain can be as easy as being aware of it. Through meditation on each moment, through noticing the breath, mindful meditation can alleviate suffering.

Center For Bud		Vipassana Buddhist Church is permanently closed. If that's wrong, you can suggest an edit.The mission of the VBC/CBD is to make the original teachings of the Buddha available throughout mid-Missouri. Vipassana Buddhist Church is unique in the central Missouri area in that we are the only Buddhist organization that provides services and ceremonies in many different traditions. Reverend Dhammaruchi was ordained in the Order of Buddhist Ministers in 1997 by his primary teacher Venerable Bhante Chao Chu, and Venerable Havanpola Ratnasara Nayaka Thero, along with other monks of the of the Buddhist Sangha Council of Southern California. Because his primary teacher is from the Theravada school, VBC-Jefferson City is centered in that school; however, all Buddhist teachings are accepted and often incorporated into our practice.

The spiritual master of the Center is the Tibetan monk Lama Samten . Having become a monk at the age of 15 Lama Samten escaped from Tibet to India in 1985 to complete his studies in Buddhist philosophy at the monastic university of Ganden Jangtsé in the same tradition as that of the Dalai Lama. He was received as a geshe (doctor of Buddhist philosophy) in 2009. He has lived in Quebec since 1998 and has been the spiritual director of the Paramita Center since 2003. In order to better meet the specific needs of the North Shore the Paramita Center was founded in 2015 under the recommendations and spiritual direction of Lama Samten. We are an assembly of meditation centers under the same organization.
Centre Bodhitc		Buddhist teachings outline a way to live in which every area of life becomes a practice. As we learn to act with greater awareness and kindness we find ourselves progressing along the path and coming nearer to Enlightenment, the state exemplified by the Buddha. Buddhist teachings formulate the path in a variety of ways, which can be a little confusing, but they all describe fundamentally the same process. The Eightfold Path is one of the most important of these formulations because it includes so many areas. Here are the stages of the path, with the equivalents in the Pali language. Sangharakshita and some other teachers prefer the term ‘Perfect’ to ‘Right’, and the English translations of these terms differ in some other ways. Resident Teacher: Gen Kelsang Lhamo.

Centre Bouddhi		Buddhism is the practice of the teachings of Buddha, also called “dharma” which means protection. It is by putting the teachings of Buddha into practice that living beings protect themselves from suffering permanently. In the year 589 BC. JC, in Bodh Gaya in India, Buddha Shakyamuni the founder of Buddhism, showed how to achieve the achievement of enlightenment. He then expounded his profound and valuable teachings and Buddhism began to flourish in this world. In our time we can see many different forms of Buddhism, such as Zen Buddhism, Theravada Buddhism, Kadampa Buddhism etc. These different aspects of Buddhism have their origins in the teachings of Buddha and are therefore equally valuable as each other. , only their presentations differ. Kadampa Buddhism is a school of Mahayana Buddhism founded by the great Indian Buddhist master Atisha (982-1054). The lineage of these teachings, or oral transmission, passed from teacher to disciple and spread throughout most of Asia and today to many countries around the world.

Centre for Wis		Rigpa is the name of an international Buddhist organization founded by Sogyal Rinpoche in 1979.[1] It has centers and groups in 41 countries around the world. Following allegations of sexual and physical abuse in a letter by former students in 2017,[2] Rigpa commissioned an independent investigation which found those claims to be largely substantiated, along with evidence of a cover-up.[3] According to its website, Rigpa seeks to make the teachings of Buddha available to benefit as many people as possible, and to offer those following the Buddhist teachings a complete path of study and practice, along with the environment they need to explore the teachings to their fullest.[4] History After five years teaching in the West, Sogyal Rinpoche gave the name 'Rigpa' to his work.[5] At that time, Rigpa had just one centre, in north-west London and was known as Dzogchen Orgyen Chö Ling.[6] By 1980, Sogyal Rinpoche was teaching in the UK, France, the United States, Ireland and Holland. Rigpa centres opened in a number of major cities, and in each country Rigpa was established as a non-profit organization. A programme of Easter and summer retreats began, and Rigpa's first retreat centre, Dzogchen Beara, was set up on the west coast of Ireland.[7] Major events Rigpa invited the Dalai Lama, or sponsored his teachings or empowerments, on a number of occasions; in Paris in 1982, London in 1984 and San Jose in 1989. Five and a half thousand people attended the teachings in San Jose, in what at the time was the largest gathering of practitioners and masters of Buddhadharma in America, and possibly in the West. In 1990, Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche taught and gave empowerments to 1,500 people at Rigpa's summer retreat near Grenoble in the French Alps.[8] In 1992, the Dzogchen Monastery in Kollegal in India, sponsored by Rigpa, was officially inaugurated when Dzogchen Rinpoche invited the Dalai Lama to give empowerments. In the same year, Rigpa opened its main retreat centre, Lerab Ling near Montpellier in the south of France.[9] Thich Nhat Hanh, Khenpo Jigme Phuntsok and Penor Rinpoche were among the masters who taught there in the years that followed. In 1999, Trulshik Rinpoche founded the basis for a monastic community within Rigpa by ordaining the first nuns.[citation needed] In 2000 the Dalai Lama visited Lerab Ling, and gave five days of teachings entitled The Path to Enlightenment, attended by more than 10,000 students of Tibetan Buddhism from around the world.[10] The teachings given by the Dalai Lama have been published in a book entitled Mind in Comfort and Ease: The Vision of Enlightenment in the Great Perfection.[11] Lerab Ling was officially recognized as a ‘religious congregation’ in 2002.[12] In 2006, a traditional three-storey temple at Lerab Ling was completed, including a seven-metre high statue of Buddha Shakyamuni. Rigpa's first three-year retreat began, with over 300 people remaining in closed retreat at Lerab Ling from 2006 to 2009, and since 2006, over 3,000 students have followed a 'home retreat' programme in their own countries.[13] In 2007, work began on Rigpa's Spiritual Care Centre at Dzogchen Beara.[14]

		QUI SOMMES-NOUS Le Centre Paramita de Québec organise différentes activités, dont des enseignements, méditations, retraites, initiations et autres cérémonies du bouddhisme tibétain. Le principal enseignant et maître spirituel est Lama Lobsang Samten, guéshé (docteur en philosophie bouddhiste) dont les enseignements proviennent à l'origine de Siddharta Gautama, qui vécut il y a plus de 2500 ans en Inde. La lignée d'enseignements de Sa Sainteté le Dalaï Lama, à laquelle est rattaché le Centre Paramita, vient directement de ce premier Bouddha historique. La vision du Centre Paramita correspond à celle de son fondateur et maître spirituel, Lama Samten. Elle consiste principalement à apporter les enseignements du Bouddha en tout lieu où il y a une demande. Le Centre Paramita constitue, en ce sens, un instrument pour y arrver.. L'enseignement bouddhiste a un objectif: le bonheur. Pour y parvenir, il y a deux méthodes: la compassion (non-violence) et la sagesse (compréhension juste).

Au fil d’ateliers en soirée et de week-ends de retraite, nous sommes invités à éprouver par nous-mêmes, dans la pratique et dans notre quotidien, la pertinence des enseignements. Le cursus utilise la matière même de notre vie comme base pour contempler et intégrer ces enseignements. Il fait une large part aux échanges, au partage de notre humanité commune, sans jugement, dans l’écoute de la richesse de chacun·e. Le fonctionnement du centre est fondé sur le bénévolat et l’organisation des programmes offerts qui fournissent des opportunités de faire l’expérience de ce qui nous est transmis, de construire des relations conscientes et authentiques, de contribuer, chacun·e à sa mesure, tel que l’on est.
		About us Welcome to the Barcelona Zen Center. Anyone who sincerely wants to practice the Way with us will be warmly received. This is where we practice the Way of Buddha, which means abandoning our ego-centered self through the practice of zazen, sitting meditation, and through samu, disinterested attention to our daily activities. We practice what cannot be expressed by words. This is not a health or wellness center, nor is it an oriental or Japanese cultural center. It is a place where one can create his or her own life through the practice of the Way of Buddha. Zazen is becoming intimate with oneself, and no else can do this for us. No one can decide for you, and no one can experience for you; but here you can find people who can accompany you in your journey and can help you in your spiritual search.

Centro Budista		Todos deseamos disfrutar en todo momento de paz y felicidad, este es nuestro deseo primordial, sin embargo cada día nos encontramos con numerosas circunstancias desagradables, y nuestra manera habitual de reaccionar ante estas adversidades es sintiéndonos infelices y enfadándonos. Puesto que no podemos satisfacer todos nuestros deseos, ni impedir que nos ocurra nada desagradable, debemos encontrar otro modo de reaccionar ante las dificultades. Si aprendemos de manera clara cómo practicar la paciencia en nuestro día a día no tendremos nada que reprimir y veremos por propia experiencia cómo es posible aceptar pacientemente cualquier circunstancia. Esta actitud positiva no sólo nos beneficia a nosotros permitiéndonos mantener una mente en calma, alegre y positiva sino también a las personas con las que nos relacionamos en nuestra vida.Resident Teacher: .

Charlielevett		21 year old meditator from London. Started practicing when I was 15 at boarding school. I became deeply invested in practice about 4 years ago when I came across the mind illuminated book by Culadasa. From there I’ve developed an ecclectic interest in soto zen, Thai forest tradition and the vipassana teachers associated with Gaia house in Devon. I’m a university student studying philosophy and psychology. I do voluntary research investigating interaction effects between frequent psychedelic use and meditation practice. I also like reading 20th century analytic moral philosophy.

Chenrezig Budd		Kadampa Buddhism is a Mahayana Buddhist school founded by the great Indian Buddhist Master Atisha (AD 982-1054). ‘Ka’ refers to Buddha’s teachings, and ‘dam’ to Atisha’s special Lamrim instructions known as ‘the stages of the path to enlightenment’. Kadampas learn to use Buddha’s teachings as practical methods for transforming all their daily activities into the path to enlightenment. The Kadampa tradition was later promoted widely in Tibet by Je Tsongkhapa and his followers, known as the ‘New Kadampas’, who were not only great scholars but also spiritual practitioners of immense purity and sincerity. Resident Teacher: Kelsang Chokga. Center Type: Residential.

Chenrezig Tibe		Venerable Khensur Rinpoche Lobsang Tenzin Khensur Rinpoche Lobsang Tenzin Geshe Wangdak was born in 1935 in the Kham province in Tibet. At age ten he entered Ba Zingon Monastery. At 18 Rinpoche journeyed to central Tibet and joined the Loseling College at Drepung Monastery near Lhasa where he studied until 1959. In 1960 after fleeing to India he resumed his studies at Buxa where a temporary monastery was established. In 1970 he moved to the newly relocated Drepung Monastic University in Mundgod South India. After two years of intensive study and practice he moved to Sarnath studying there until 1977. Rinpoche returned to Drepung to take his Geshe exams and his scholastic achievement earned him the Geshe Lharampa degree. Soon after completing his Geshe exams he was invited to teach at Namgyal Monastery in Dharamsala India where he was senior teacher for 14 years teaching both sutra and tantra. While at Namgyal Rinpoche received initiations and teachings of tantric practices of all four traditions of Tibetan Buddhism. In 1991 he was appointed Abbot of the monastery by H.H. the Dalai Lama a position he held until 1994. In 1995 His Holiness appointed Khensur Rinpoche Abbot and Senior Resident Teacher at Namgyal Monastery in Ithaca NY. He retired from Ithaca in 1998 and now resides at the Chenrezig Tibetan Buddhist Center in Middletown Connecticut.

Chi Lin Nunner		Chi Lin Nunnery was founded in 1934. The founder, Venerable Wei An, originally planned to build a traditional monastery for monks to practice. Later, due to the large influx of domestic immigrants, the society at that time had a very strong demand for welfare services, so it devoted its efforts to Develop welfare services. In 1957, Chi Lin Nunnery opened a non-government funded, non-profit nursing home to house the helpless elderly. With the changes in society, our elderly care services have also developed from simple self-sufficiency to diversified comprehensive services.

Chicago Zen Ce		OUR LINEAGE Practice at the Chicago Zen Center has from the very beginning been built upon a strong teaching tradition. Philip Kapleau, the Center's founding teacher, is widely recognized as one of the major contributors to the establishment of an American Zen in the Harada-Yasutani tradition. His Three Pillars of Zen continues to serve as a sure guide for anyone interested in getting to know something of Zen from the inside out. At its founding in 1974, the Chicago Zen Center was an affiliate of the Rochester Zen Center, where Kapleau was abbot. When Kapleau passed on the abbotship of the RZC to his Dharma heir, Bodhin Kjolhede, responsibility for the CZC was passed on as well. Both Kapleau and Kjolhede would travel to the Midwest (Chicago or Madison, WI) at least twice a year for sesshins, and CZC members often made the trip to Rochester to attend longer sesshins there. Their dedication to the Chicago sangha helped the Center to grow, and by 1996 the CZC was large and established enough to warrant its own resident teacher. Sevan Ross, who had trained extensively in Rochester, moved to Chicago that year and was made its first autonomous teacher in 1997. At the same time, the CZC became financially and administratively independent of Rochester, but the CZC continues to maintain strong Dharma ties with RZC and the other sanghas throughout the world that have their roots in the Kapleau-Kjolhede teaching tradition, the Cloud-Water Sangha, and its ordained lineage, the Three Jewels Order. After almost a decade and a half of tireless service, Ross decided the time was right for a new teaching generation to guide the Center. Yusan Graham was sanctioned as a teacher in 2009, ordained a priest in 2010, and installed as the new abbot that same year. Under his leadership the sangha stabilized and grew both in numbers and in the spirit of dedicated practice. In 2021 Yusan sanctioned Shodhin Geiman, a priest of the Center since 2010, as a teacher in his own right. In 2023 Yusan retired as abbot and designated Shodhin as his successor.
Chicago Zen Co		We are a diverse group of Chicagoans committed to practicing the Zen way of awakening together, and to providing a place for others to come to and deepen their own practice. We practice in the Sōtō Zen Buddhist tradition, which traces its heritage back to Buddha through a 2500-year history of fellow practitioners, including our ancient teachers Bodhidharma, Caoqi Huineng, Dongshan Liangjie, and Eihei Dōgen, and our modern teachers, Dainin Katagiri, Shoken Winecoff, and Myoshi Thomson, who guides our practice here in Chicago. We welcome all to join us in our study and practice of the way of Zen. What is this practice? The founder of our lineage in Japan, Eihei Dōgen (1200-1253), put it simply: “To study the Way is to study the self; to study the self is to forget the self; to forget the self is to be awakened by all things.” Our practice, then, starts with ourselves, with seeing clearly who we are, and how we are, right now, in this moment. Our basic activity together is quiet seated meditation. Indeed, the word “Zen” itself is derived from a Sanskrit word for meditation, and sitting in silent meditation has always been the central practice of Zen. But together we learn to practice the way of awakening in all our activities, and indeed to make our very lives themselves expressions of the awakened mind and heart. Myoshi Roger Thomson Myoshi at Eiheiji Myoshi Roger Thomson Rev. Myoshi Roger Thomson is a teacher in the Soto Zen Buddhist tradition. He received dharma transmission in 2013 from Rev. Shoken Winecoff, Abbott of Ryumonji Zen Monastery, in the lineage of Dogen Zenji and Dainin Katagiri Roshi. He was head monk at Ryumonji in 2011, and he also received monastic training at Tassajara Zen Mountain Monastery. He is registered as a teacher with the Soto Zen Buddhist Association, in America, and Sotoshu Shumucho, in Japan.

China Buddhist		The Buddhist Association of China (BCA) is the official government supervisory organ of Buddhism in the People's Republic of China. The association has been overseen by the United Front Work Department (UFWD) of the Central Committee of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) since the State Administration for Religious Affairs' absorption into the UFWD in 2018.[1] The association's headquarters are located in Guangji Temple in Beijing. Overview See also: Nanshan Temple (Sanya) The BCA is charged with serving as a "bridge" linking Buddhists to the CCP and Chinese government by communicating government regulations to Buddhists and mobilizing them to comply with national laws.[2][3] It also coordinates participation of Chinese Buddhists in international Buddhist fora as a form of state influence.[4][5] It also supports local Buddhist associations in paying clerics' salaries, in registering temples with the government, and in productively using temple labor. The association publishes a journal, Chinese Buddhism.[6] History The Buddhist Association of China was founded on 30 May 1953,[7] and was disbanded in the late 1960s during the Cultural Revolution, then reactivated following the end of that period.[7] In 1980, the CCP Central Committee approved a request by the United Front Work Department to create a national conference for religious groups.[8]: 126–127 The BCA was one of five such religious groups, which also included the Islamic Association of China, the Chinese Taoist Association, the Three-Self Patriotic Movement, and the Catholic Patriotic Association.[8]: 127 In 1994, Zhao Puchu tried to limit the practice of businesses and municipalities building outlandishly large mountaintop and cliffside Buddha statues. Noting that China has at least one mountaintop Buddha for each of the cardinal directions he stated "That's enough", and clarified. "From now on, there is no need to build any more outdoor Buddha statues." These efforts were entirely unsuccessful.[9] In 2006, The BCA and the Hong Kong Buddhist Association hosted the second World Buddhist Forum for dialogue between Buddhist monks and scholars from 50 countries and regions. The forum lasted for four days in the city of Wuxi in Jiangsu province.[10] The organizer of events was the president of the BCA, Venerable Master Yicheng. The vice president is Gyaincain Norbu, a disputed 11th Panchen Lama.[11][12] In 2017 the BCA declared the longstanding tradition that the first offering of incense of the new year are particularly auspicious to have no grounds in Buddhist doctrine.[13] In 2018, the BCA's parent organization, the State Administration for Religious Affairs, was absorbed into the CCP's United Front Work Department.[1] In August 2018 Xuecheng resigned as president of the Buddhist Association of China following reports of sexual harassment by six female monks. The scandal was seen as part of the wider me too movement.[14] In February 2023, the BCA launched a searchable database of official practitioners.[15]

These centers are linked together through the Kwan Um School of Zen.
Chogye Interna		Welcome to the Chogye International Zen Center of New York! The Zen Center is open for in-person practice. Masks are now optional. Practice is also fully accessible through Zoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/825835413?pwd=M3Vncm41VTRBeUNKeXlOODg5K0UwQT09 If you are prompted for a passcode, use 108. In-person practice can have a powerful impact on practice and is strongly encouraged. ___________________________ What is Zen? Zen employs several simple techniques of formal practice and meditation that help direct the student towards a central question: “What am I?” Although this question seems shapeless, Zen has developed, over many centuries, a practical and clearly defined means of approaching it. Meditation, communal activity, and student-teacher dialogue are common to all Zen traditions. If there is an element of faith in Zen, it is faith that steadfast concentration on the question of self-nature will bring clarity and energy to everyday life as well as a faith that, ultimately, Zen practice will not focus on an isolated “I” but on the whole real world.

		I like how she embraces specific negative labels and says “wait hold on you think that is not you…come on!” These are the labels we use for other people not for ourselves we can discount them dismiss their experience because they are not like us it’s all a way for us to avoid looking at ourselves. She calls it as it is “You are delusional!” I think most of us would agree that we are delusional in a “not yet awakened way” but not “actually delusional” or in a “literally delusional” way but is that true? In our sangha manual we have this adapted line from Shinran as part of our liturgy Blinded by our delusion anger and greed we cannot see the brilliant light that embraces us – The Great compassion never tires always casting its boundless light upon us just as we are always. Sometimes for our dharma talk we will use the prayers and affirmations in our practice manual as a starting point. We used the one above for a recent discussion. I asked the gathering what they would call someone who is out of touch with reality or in other words a person who doesn’t accept reality as it is and they responded with delusional. So I followed up by asking them how they were delusional. Not something they are usually asked. It was great to see their eyes light up as they started to slowly understand how they are actually delusional in a real everyday sort of way. It was then that the words of our dharma brother Noah San came into my head it was a line from his book on Secular Buddhism which I really liked. In the chapter about Dukkha he distills the cause of suffering into to a very simple and profound way. He writes that “We suffer because we want reality to be different than it is.” I offered this teaching to the gathering. It is that simple. We are delusional because of we. “we want reality to be different than it is.” It’s even more than want we scheme invent strategies create convoluted stories all so we do not have to accept reality as it is. Let me share an everyday experience that helped me see this.

Chung Tai Chan		Chung Tai Chan Monastery is a Buddhist monastery located in Puli Township, Nantou County, Taiwan. It is the headquarters of Chung Tai Shan, an international ... It takes years to grow trees to build a temple, but decades to prepare monastics to turn the Dharma wheel. Following the “Three Links of Cultivation,” which integrates the disciplines of service, scripture studies, and meditation as the guiding principle to cultivation, the Grand Master promoted sangha education, social education, and school education. From practicing in seclusion to turning the Dharma wheel, whether in action or in stillness, he had always diligently lived by the Buddhist teaching, leading his disciples to fulfill the bodhisattva way. Abiding by the motto “When in stillness, rest all thoughts; when in action, perfect all actions.,” the Grand Master set an exemplary model of Buddhist cultivation for all.
Chung Tai Zen		About Us The American public is becoming increasingly interested in the ancient spiritual tradition of Zen Buddhism, known as “Chan” in Chinese, which flourished in China around 700 A.D. Since then it has provided the spiritual nourishment for countless people. Zen Buddhism teaches how to attain inner peace and uncover the inherent wisdom, or “Buddha nature”, within each person. Becoming disillusioned with the emptiness of material gains, or ridden by stress and anxiety in the fast pace of modern living, many are turning to Buddhism, which takes the belief that people suffer because of the greed, anger, and ignorance in all of us. By probing into our own minds and understanding the nature of our afflictions, we can attain true inner peace, regardless of what happens externally. Zen meditation is one effective way that helps us achieve this goal. To bring the Buddha’s compassion and wisdom to America, Grand Master Wei Chueh kindly despatched his disciples to establish the first overseas branch of Chung Tai Chan Monastery in the U.S. on October 2000— the Buddha Gate Monastery in the East Bay of San Francisco. The monastery offered various classes and programs and soon found itself serving people from different parts of the Bay Area.

Chungwa Instit		Chung-Hwa Institute of Buddhist Studies The Chung-Hwa Institute for Buddhist Studies (CHIBS) was established in 1985 by Venerable Master Sheng Yen, founder of the Dharma Drum Mountain (DDM). In 2001, the CHIBS he moved to the DDM World Center for Buddhist Education, located in Jinshan District, Taiwan. In 2006, CHIBS successfully approved the Ministry of Education's requirements to establish the first private Buddhist institute, “Dharma Drum Buddhist College,” in Taiwan. In 2007, CHIBS stopped enrolling students, transferring that responsibility to the Dharma Drum Buddhist Institute. Since Venerable Master Sheng Yen passed away in February 2009, CHIBS has continued to focus on being a global promoter for the academic study and research of Chinese Buddhism, thus fulfilling one of Venerable Master Sheng Yen's primary goals. Together with the Sheng Yen Educational Foundation, CHIBS now employs the entire pool of trained people and resources to foster research and spread of Chinese Buddhism within and outside the country. A very successful application of CHIBS resources has been a cooperative editorial project with Columbia University in New York City, in which CHIBS locates and funds excellent research projects on aspects of Chinese Buddhism from the dynasty Sung until the Republican Stage, and assists the Columbia University Press in its publication. In addition, Chinese research papers will be published by the Dharma Drum Publishing Corporation. CHIBS also helps universities around the world with funding for conferences and workshops related to aspects of Chinese Buddhism. In addition, CHIBS provides exchange students and scholars with assistance in conducting their investigations of Chinese Buddhism. Finally, CHIBS continues to publish its internationally known Chung Hwa Buddhist Journal, and will reintroduce readers to the multilingual journal of Buddhist Studies Chung Hwa, showing the results of research by graduate students. .

Cincinnati Kar		Karma Kagyu (Tibetan: ཀརྨ་བཀའ་བརྒྱུད, Wylie: karma bka'-brgyud), or Kamtsang Kagyu (Tibetan: ཀརྨ་ཀཾ་ཚང་, Wylie: kar+ma kaM tshang), is a widely practiced and probably the second-largest lineage within the Kagyu school, one of the four major schools of Tibetan Buddhism.[1] The lineage has long-standing monasteries in Tibet, China, Russia, Mongolia, India, Nepal and Bhutan, with current centres in over 60 countries. The spiritual head of the Karma Kagyu is the Gyalwa Karmapa; the 2nd among the 10 Karmapas had been the principal spiritual advisors to successive emperors of China.[2] The Karma Kagyu are sometimes called the "Black Hat" lamas, in reference to the Black Crown worn by the Karmapa.

Stiff, academic, and not catchy at all. She wanted something that would create interest and inspire action. The group agreed and over the next few weeks we tried on various slogans, playing with phrases, words, concepts etc. Eventually, we all settled on the phrase that you see below and on the Homepage of the website.

Comunidad Soto		Zen is born from the experience of the historical Buddha Siddhartha Gautama when in a meditation posture he awakens to the immediate reality of life. The word Buddha means "The Awakened One" and refers to the ability to immerse oneself in the full experience of life beyond the conditioning and filters with which we interact in everyday life. The Zen school of Buddhism recovers the experience of the Buddha and updates it in each of the activities of daily life. It was introduced into China by Bodhidharma a master who represented the twenty-eighth generation of disciples after the Buddha. China was at that time divided into rival states. Disorder reigned everywhere due to the rift produced by the struggle for power. The country was subjected to tyrants and bloodied by rebellions. The Liang dynasty reigned over one of the states of ancient China. The emperor Wu-Ti head of this dynasty and a fervent Buddhist heard about Bodhidharma and received him in his palace. Wu-Ti did not understand Bodhidharma's message and the latter knew that the time to spread Zen in China had not yet come so he crossed the Yang-Tse River and retired to the northern mountains to the Shaolin Temple. Nine years into his seclusion Eka appeared who would become the second patriarch and allow the lineage to continue. After the fifth patriarch Hui Neng Zen had a great expansion in China giving rise to five schools known as the Five Houses of Zen. Of the five schools of Zen Buddhism in China Rinzai Soto Ummon Igyo and Hogen in Japan only the Rinzai and Soto lineages achieved significant development the former due to Eisai and the latter to Dōgen and Keizan. The Soto Zen tradition is based on the transmission of shikantaza “just sitting” and sokushinzebutsu the mind itself is Buddha. With Master Dōgen (1200-1253) the Soto school and the essence of Buddhism reached a degree of maturity and precision difficult to find in other times. His masterpiece the Shōbōgenzō is an essential piece for understanding the essence of Buddhism. Three generations after his death Keizan Zenji contributed greatly to the propagation of Soto Zen Buddhism in Japan. He is considered along with Dōgen Zenji one of the founders of the lineage.

Contemporary Z		Robertson Dharma Centre Who We Are The Dharma Centre is the home of contemporary Zen in Africa, and was started by Heila and Rodney Downey during 1981 in Somerset West. At the end of 1994 we relocated to the beautiful country town Robertson, whilst at the same time establishing a new urban centre in Rondebosch, Cape Town. Since the beginning of 2018 we moved from Rondebosch to our new home, the Sufi Temple, in Newlands. We now have a dynamic and energetic sangha, ever growing in numbers! Our Zen heritage and African Dharma For some years the Centre based its activities and teaching format on that of the Rochester Zen Centre, led by Philip Kapleau Roshi, who after many years of formal training at Japanese Temples, had become one of the pioneers of American Zen. In 1991, inspired by the teaching of Zen Master Seungh Sahn, who in the early 70’s established Korean Zen on American soil, we changed direction and formally adopted the teaching and practice style of the Kwan Um School of Zen, whilst still drawing on our insights and experiences gleaned whilst practicing with the Rochester Zen Centre. It was during this year that we were officially appointed as the Head Temple of the school in Africa under guidance of Su Bong Zen Master, who played a pivotal role in the further development of the Centre and school until his death in 1994. With changing times, our practice and teaching has evolved to express a style in harmony with our African heritage resulting in our resignation from the Kwan Um School of Zen. With this change, we function as an independent Zen Center, whilst expanding our MAIA program – (Mindful Awareness in Action), currently predominantly taught in prison, as part of the sustainable rehabilitation protocol for inmates. We have also developed a very unique program called The 20 Steps. A detailed program enabling participants to bring meticulous awareness to every activity in daily life. In 2001, at the invitation of Tania Lohman from Porto Allegre, we started teaching in Brazil on a yearly basis and the ‘Modesto Grupo de Meditadores’ was started. This group too has relinquished their relationship with The Kwan Um School of Zen. As the African Dharma continues to develop and grow, Zen Master Seung Sahn’s legacy and teaching will continue to sustain and encourage us in the never-ending quest of “Who am I” and “How May I Help You?

I have enjoyed meditation esoteric philosophy and spiritual seeking ever since I had a near death experience at 21 and astral projected as part of the OBE.

Being a small community of Thai monks I am able to have more private teachings from them in exchange for helping teach them english.

Cory Barnes		I am an autistic man in Oklahoma looking for a zen teacher to help me practice
Cosmosus		I got interested in buddhism mainly because of increasing daily discontentment I was grappling with, despite living in a somewhat privileged western culture compared to other parts of the world. Needless to say, this thought evoked shame and loathing, combined with other mental projections that lead to despair, depression.. I'm very glad I found Dhammarato, which I can gladly say is one of my favorite teachers.

Dagom Gaden Te		Dagom Gaden Tensung Ling Buddhist Monastery was founded in 1996 by renown Tibetan Buddhist teachers Ven. Kyabje Dagom Rinpoche and Ven. Gonsar Rinpoche. Their deepest wish in establishing the monastery was to preserve for the benefit of all sentient beings the Buddha's tecahnings as transmitted by the Gelugpa lineage of Tibetan Buddhism. Though DGTL functions as a traditional monastery for monks of this lineage, it also welcomes lay people of all nationalities and backgrounds to participate in its many religious, cultural and educational programs. These include sacred teachings by visiting and resident monks, the construction of precious sand mandalas, daily prayer services, guest lectures to schools and community groups, and the annual Taste of Tibet in which the monks cook Tibetan delicacies for the communities of Bloomington and Cincinnati. DGTL is nestled at one end of Bloomington, Indiana's Lower Cascades Park, a natural setting with cliffs, a creek, and a waterfall. The quiet monastery grounds and the building decorated by hand with traditional Tibetan colors and designs, are open to anyone who wishes to visit or to practice, from 7 am until 7:00 pm daily.

Dai Bai Zan -		A Seattle Zen Temple in the Rinzai Dharma line.
Dai Bai Zan Ch		Dai Bai Zan Cho Bo Zen Ji is a Rinzai-style Zen temple located on North Beacon Hill in Seattle, Washington. Its name translates from Japanese as "Listening to the Dharma Zen Temple on Great Plum Mountain." Dai Bai Zan Cho Bo Zen Ji or “The Listening to the Dharma Zen Temple on Great Plum Mountain” was founded in Seattle, WA by Zen Master Genki Takabayashi. Genki Roshi (Senior Priest) was invited by the Seattle Zen Center (founded by Dr. Glenn Webb, at the time a University of Washington Art History professor) to become the resident teacher in the fall 1977. He accepted, and early in 1984 formalized his teaching style around a small group of students and founded Cho Bo Zen Ji, which had its opening ceremony 10/1/84. Genki3.jpg Genki Takabayahsi: Before Genki came to Seattle, he trained for nearly twenty years at Daitoku-Ji, the head Rinzai temple in Japan, founded in the fourteenth century. In addition Genki Roshi directed a Rinzai temple in Kamakura, Japan. He entered the monastery when he was eleven years old. He is Chobo-Ji’s founding abbot. During his life he fully ordained three priests, including in 1990 our current abbot, Kokan Genjo Marinello Osho, Daiju Gentei Diedricks Osho, who now lives in Oxnard California, and Genko Kathy Blackman Ni-Osho on April 8th 2007. After twenty years of tirelessly giving himself to the transmission of Buddha Dharma to the United States, in 1997 he retired as our teacher (see Retirement Teisho), got married and moved to Montana. In retirement, Genki continued to do the activities he loved best, gardening, pottery, calligraphy, writing and cooking. Muho Genki Zenji Dai Osho dropped his body on February 24th, 2013. He passed at his home in Victor Montana with his wife and cat at his side. May the flower of his inspiration continue to bloom for generations to come.

Dan Cornforth		Dan did data collection and web site editing
Dan M		Hello, I started connecting with Buddhism a little more than 20 years ago through curiosity, interest in self learning. I was learning mainly through reading and interpreting my own understanding of practices such as meditation. My practice and consistency has been on and off over the years. Within the last 10 years I have had a small bit of contact with a local Sangha and teacher. I have used the guidance of apps as well. I am hoping to connect more with others, grow further and provide encouragement or support to others.
dan s		I live in Thailand , been here for 12 years. Daily meditation practice. Try to do retreat every year. Hi everyone.
Dan-Abrams
DAN GOLDFIELD		Dan is a dhamma teacher in the lineage of Bhikkhu Buddhadasa. He learned the dhamma via hundreds of hours of Skype calls with Dhammarato and also received Dzogchen transmission from Tempa Dukte Lama of Olmo Ling Monastery in Pittsburgh PA. /Dan is about to earn an accredited teaching certificate in Complementary Healthcare Educational Theory & Personal Development. He is husband to a qualified Neuropsychologist who confirms his teaching from the academic perspective. /Dan became interested in dhamma first of all seeking simple stress relief. He was working hard playing hard and paying the consequences! He ’shopped around’ for a year or so before spotting a post by our own Noah Starbuck on r/streamentry where Noah was kindly offering the opportunity to speak with Dhammarato./Dan’s first call with Dhammarato lasted 3 hours and he called right back the next day for round 2. Finally Dan felt he was hearing satisfactory answers to those deepest of questions he’d had since his earliest memories. Dan enjoys a daily gratitude high for Dhammarato Bhikkhu Buddhadasa and the rest of the noble lineage. Following Dhammarato’s example Dan’s practice these days is better described as ‘play’. Dan decided early on that first jhana—as described in the suttas—sounded like a good place to hang out. So he used Anapanasati to dance along the Eightfold Noble Path until the hindrances fell behind the horizon./Dan teaches the dhamma in friendship. Conversations are casual & lighthearted. No formal structure is necessary: the dhamma is transmitted naturally in a one-to-one setting. This is what it was like for Dan learning with Dhammarato and it is a potent method. Unavoidably the Four Noble Truths and Anapanasati will show up and for those who are interested Dan enjoys sharing insights into how other wisdom teachings agree with the supra-mundane dhamma./Further for those who wish to embrace lay life Dan is currently developing a system for engaging with the world on the foundation of supra-mundane insight.

Day Star Zendo		Day Star Zendo is an inter-religious Zen sangha. Our mission is to provide a place of refuge in which people of all traditions (or none) are welcome to practice and come to a deeper realization of life. We are in the White Plum lineage created by Hakuyu Taizan Maezumi and Tetsugen Bernard Glassman. Our teacher, Kevin Jiun Hunt, O.C.S.O., Roshi, is also a Catholic priest and a Trappist monk of over fifty years. He was certified as a Zen teacher after more than thirty years of practice by Robert Jinsen Kennedy, S.J., Roshi, a Jesuit priest and Zen teacher. If you desire a deeper realization of who you are and your relationship to life, nature, the absolute, God – the practice of a deeper way of meditation can help you realize such insights. This practice is not limited to people of a particular faith tradition. Zen can help anyone who wishes to truly realize who and what they are through insight, looking deeply at oneself and what is. Day Star Zendo came about through the efforts of Fr. Kevin Hunt, Roshi and Cynthia Taberner, Roshi. Fr. Kevin was the residing priest for the sisters at Mt. St. Mary's in Wrentham. He has since retired and is residing at the Trappist monastery in Spencer, MA. Cynthia, Roshi, has also retired from Day Star Zendo after 10 years of guiding the development of the Sangha. And because of the kindness of the sisters, they let Day Star Zendo continue to use the basement of their McMahon Retreat House as a zendo when we can meet in person(as you can see above).

Deep Spring Ce		Deep Spring Center's primary focus is to speak to the question of how we may live with more wisdom and compassion, with lovingkindness and non-harm to all beings. Our work falls into two categories, meditation and spiritual inquiry. In ‚Äúspiritual inquiry,‚Äù questions related to our deepest purposes here on earth are explored. Who are we? Are we merely body and mind or is there a deeper, universal essence to our being? Why are we incarnate, and to what use may we put this incarnate experience? Life offers us some painful experiences. How can we relate to these as ‚Äúteacher‚Äù rather than opponent and respond with increasing wisdom, compassion and love? Fundamental to our spiritual inquiry is the practice of meditation. While the core of the meditation practices we teach derive from Buddhist traditions, no ritual is included and no special religious beliefs are necessary to their practice. Deep Spring Center is, at heart, a community of individuals who are asking questions about how we can live with more clarity and love.

Deer Park Mona		Throughout the year our doors are open to receive guests. We invite you to join us for Days of Mindfulness, special or themed retreats, or a general stay outside of our Retreat program.

Other activities include walking meditation, silent meal, and a discussion of the practice. We welcome day visitors. Registration is not required, and there is no cost incurred for the day participation, but dana or donation is greatly appreciated. Special Retreats: Throughout the year we offer retreats of various themes, including our annual Teen Camp and Family Retreat, our annual Winter Retreat, retreats for college students and professors, retreats for young adults, and more. Please check our calendar of events for a list of retreats and dates. (Please note that each retreat on our program may have different arrival days. Also after each retreat, the community will be closed for a few days to clean up. You may contact us to find out about these dates.) General Stay: Outside of our special or themed retreats, you can come join us for a general stay. To help make our practice stable and solid, Friday is our only arrival/departure day each week. We will give an orientation about our practice to new arrivals each Friday evening, which is essential for you to really benefit from and enjoy your stay. For a deepening of the practice to occur and for mindful living to take root and become a vital part of daily life, we recommend a minimum stay of one week. If you cannot stay for one week, you can participate in our weekend program, which starts on Friday afternoons and ends on Sunday afternoons. If you wish to stay longer than two weeks, please write a letter to the community to express your motivation beforehand. We are very happy to have friends practicing with us for longer periods of time, but the community will make the final decision only after your first two weeks at Deer Park, based on your capacity to live in harmony with the Sangha (community) and your commitment to the practice.

Dhamma Sacca		In May 2015 the Spanish Vipassana Trust started the construction of a new meditation center. The completion of the first phase of construction and the beginning of courses are scheduled for August 2016. The search for a suitable site in the center of the Iberian peninsula and not far from Madrid began in 2009. In 2012, members of the search committee found the ideal place: a property about 2 hours from Madrid, in the town of Candeleda in the province of Ávila, with 10 hectares of rural land, protected from the north wind by the Sierra de Gredos mountains, and with stunning views of Pico Almanzor (2,592 m). Dhamma Sacca means the Truth of Dhamma. The center will have a capacity for 120 students and 30 servers. The proximity to Portugal makes it possible to share courses with the neighbouring country. The construction of the center meets all environmental requirements from the Junta the Castilla and Leon, the Confederación Hidrográfica del Tajo and the city of Candeleda. The land has been replanted with the oaks, ash and cork trees native to the area.

Dhammadipa Vih		We must distinguish between reincarnation and rebirth... In reincarnation what is reborn is the wandering soul and is understood as the eternal essence (something). While in rebirth this is understood as an energy (which changes continuously every moment) and tends to encourage the formation of new births. So if asked whether what is reborn is the same or not? The answer is the same and not the same. As we know almost everything in this world experiences change. An analogy that can be used is a mango seed that turns into a mango tree. Are mango seeds and mango trees the same? The answer is no. Are they different? The answer is the same because from the seed that turns into a tree and then when the tree bears fruit the fruit produces seeds again... Are the seeds that become the seeds of the tree the same as the seeds of the fruit produced by the tree? Obviously different right? But are they really different? It cannot be said to be different because the tree carries the properties of the seeds and produces similar fruit so that later the seeds will also produce the same character as the original seeds... But clearly these are different seeds. Although they produce the same tree - the same fruit - the same taste. Basically this rebirth is mostly the accumulation of past actions that become the form of the present birth. Is it the same person obviously not but is it not the same? Also not at all different because the results of our actions in this lifetime then become the cause of the next birth. Likewise our habits in conditioning impressions thoughts and feelings at this time will also become memories that are retained and always accompany future births. This is part of the working of natural law and the natural law of citta (consciousness or mind). To answer which collection of actions and thoughts will become the present birth will be very difficult to calculate considering that there are so many accumulations that have not been realized in this birth alone... We cannot speculate about the fruits of kamma just because it is according to our minds. But basically all bad deeds and bad thoughts will become the basic material for the emergence of the next birth... Whether this is a different person or not is very difficult to explain because on the one hand it is clearly different while on the other hand there are many attachments to the past.... Thus we should learn to understand what is the cause of future birth and try to condition the cause that will become a good effect... And there is no need to think about how the results will be let alone try to deceive ourselves with gatuk science... Because how the law of kamma and the law of citta and other laws become one process with all the collections of kamma and collections of citta formations... Of course the law of bija (Bija Niyama) and utu (Utu Niyama) will still take part in our birth process too. Hopefully this answer is clear enough for all of us.

Dhammikarama B		Contact: Tan Cheng Chui Since the early 19th century, there had been a Burmese settlement in Pulau Tikus.[1] On 1 August 1803, a small temple named "Nandy Moloh Temple" was erected in the area by the Burmese community from a land donated by Nyonya Betong after she purchased a land for $390 (Spanish dollar) from George Layton.[1][2][3][4] The first abbot for the temple was U. Nandamala.[1] Since its early times, women devotees have been the mainstay of the temple with four female trustees;[2] Nyonya Betong, Nyonya Meerut, Nyonya Koloh and Nyonya Bulan.[1] As the Burmese community grows, they later appealed to Queen Victoria for additional lands to extend the temple size as well for the burial grounds of the elders.[1] This was received positively by the government of the Straits Settlements and a grant was made to two Burmese female trustees named Nongmay and Boonkhan during the term of W. J. Butterworth as the Straits Settlements governor in 1845.[1][2][5]

		Chan is the school of Chinese Buddhism popularly known as “Zen” in Japanese. It is also a term that refers to a way of living or experiencing the world. But ultimately, Chan means direct awakening to interconnectedness and impermanence, and the consequent arising of Buddhist wisdom and compassion. This awakening experience is inexpressible in words; […] CHAN METHODS Chan is often referred to as the “gateless gate.” A “gate” is both a method of practice and a path to liberation. The gateway into Chan will open naturally as long as a practitioner can let go of his/her self-centered conscious mind. In response to people’s needs, past Chan masters adapted other forms of practice […] THE CHAN PRINCIPLE The principle of Chan is taking body and mind from a state of confusion and disparity through a condition of one-mind to the experience of no-mind (or no-thought). This is the result of letting go of one’s clinging attachment to the sense of “I,” and to the illusion of the permanence of the self and […] HOW TO MEDITATE Zuo Chan (meditation) was practiced in China long before the appearance of Chan. The earlier masters practiced according to methods in the Hinayana sutras, which emphasized the techniques collectively known as samatha-vipasyana.
Dharma Drum Mo		The founder, Master Shengyan─A brief biography Master Shengyan was born in Nantong, Jiangsu Province in 1930. In 1943, he became a monk at Guangjiao Zen Temple in Langshan. In 1949, he joined the army and followed the Nationalist Government to Taiwan. After serving for ten years, he became a monk again under the leadership of Dongchu. Master Shengyan spent six years in seclusion in the Meinong Mountains of Kaohsiung, and then went to Japan for further studies at Risho University in Tokyo, where he received a doctorate in literature in 1975. Later, he was invited to the United States to promote Buddhism, and served successively as director and vice president of the American Buddhist Association, abbot of Dajue Temple in New York, and president of the Sutra Translation Institute in Taiwan. After Master Dongchu passed away in 1978, Master Shengyan returned to Taiwan from the United States to inherit the legal affairs. Inspired by the enthusiasm of his American disciples for seeking the Dharma, Master Shengyan founded the "Zen Center" in New York, USA in 1979. Later, it expanded and moved its location and changed its name to "Higashichu Zen Temple". Since then, Master Shengyan has regularly traveled between the United States and Taiwan to spread his teachings.
		About Us Dharma Drum Vancouver Center (DDVC) was founded by the renowned teacher and scholar of Chan Buddhism, Chan Master Sheng Yen. The history of the Center can be traced back to the venerable master’s first visit to Vancouver in 1994. At that time, a small group of practitioners gathered, and after his departure, they committed themselves to continuing to practice. Over the years, this small group grew into a larger community, and the need of a new center became evident by 2004. After two years of construction, the new center began operating under the guidance of resident monastics in the Dharma Drum lineage of Chan Buddhism. We are located at 8240 No. 5 Road, a well-known multi-faith community in Richmond, south of Vancouver City. The Center is maintained by staff and volunteers who, together with our strong faculty of monastic and lay teachers, aim to provide a home for Buddhist practice and learning for everyone. Classes in meditation and Buddhist teachings, retreats ranging from one to seven days, ritual practice, drumming ensemble, reading circle, and family activities are offered all year round to meet your interests and needs. Our mission is to share the Dharma Drum lineage’s teaching of Chan Buddhism, and to help people find freedom and peace within their own minds. This is achieved through the three practices of ethical conduct, meditation, and cultivating compassion and wisdom. May our work together continue to benefit all beings, and give rise to greater peace and harmony in the world.

Dharma Teacher		The Dharma Teacher Order is a group of monastics and lay people who follow the Vietnamese Zen (Thien) Buddhist tradition and are interested in 1) learning more about the Dharma (Buddha’s teachings) 2) developing our spiritual practices and 3) making the Dharma available to the Western Hemisphere. We are respectful of all Buddhist traditions as well as other religious denominations and welcome interaction with all of them. Dharma Teacher Order In 2000 the Venerable Thich Tri Hoang founded the Dharma Teacher Order at the Hai An Pagoda Buddhist Temple near Hartford Connecticut. The decision to initiate the order came out of a desire to bring the benefit of Dharma practice and knowledge to the West. The guiding principles are quite simple: Deepen the members’ Dharma practice; Make the Dharma available to all interested persons; Provide a resource for teachers of Dharma; Train people to perform various ceremonial functions. The Vietnamese tradition of Buddhism is particularly suited to the modern world because of its emphasis on the “spirit” of Buddhism and its high tolerance for differences in interpreting the mundane aspects of the Dharma. The DTO is the sponsor of The Buddadharma Studies Institute. More information about the Dharma Teacher Order can be found on the DTO site.

Dimo Petrov		Started to meditate by my self 10 years ago, practicing listening of running water or to be exact Kuan-yin’s method.

Dipabhavan		For people who have never meditated before, this will be a unique experience. Even those who have done some meditation will find that the approach followed here offers perspectives unlike any place else. Because meditation explores the human mind (or heart) which is vast, profound, and complex, there will be beautiful moments and very difficult ones. You will be challenged deeply within yourself. If you keep trying to practice meditation, you will realize happiness that is beyond conventional happiness. We hope you could discover the most important thing in your life and a happier and more peaceful world for you and our friends – human, animal, plant – and even things that are "non-living". I recently had the opportunity to visit Dipabhavan, a serene meditation center nestled in the picturesque landscape of Koh Samui. This center provides an ideal environment for individuals seeking a dedicated meditation retreat. It strikes a harmonious balance between the strictness required for deep introspection and the freedom from rigid practices found in some other retreats, such as Goenka. The tranquil atmosphere at Dipabhavan is characterized by a profound silence that permeates the surroundings, allowing visitors to fully immerse themselves in their meditation practice.The retreat's accommodations are humble yet comfortable, with basic dormitories that offer a sense of simplicity and tranquility. While the sleeping arrangements may be rudimentary, I would recommend bringing a yoga mat or two to enhance comfort during restful hours. The center is located amidst the mountains, creating a refreshing and cool climate that lends itself perfectly to the pursuit of peace and stillness. Though mosquitoes are not abundant in this area, it is advisable to have mosquito repellent on hand to ensure an undisturbed experience.During my time at Dipabhavan, I found the daily meals to be a delightful blend of simplicity and deliciousness. The nourishing vegetarian fare provided sustenance and energy for the rigorous yet rewarding practice of meditation. In addition to the nourishment of the body, the center offers the invaluable guidance of a resident monk who leads meditation sessions once a day. These teachings, rooted in the practice of Anapanasati, or breath awareness, serve as a guiding light on the path to deep mindfulness and self-discovery.Isolation from the distractions of the external world allowed me to delve deep into my meditation practice, enhancing my concentration and fostering a sense of calm that seemed to grow with each passing day. The absence of external influences enabled me to truly connect and explore profound levels of mindfulness that had eluded me before. The dedicated focus on Anapanasati, with its emphasis on breath awareness, facilitated a powerful and transformative experience. The staff at Dipabhavan was not only welcoming but also attentive, ready to assist and support visitors in their individual journeys. Their guidance and warm presence created a supportive and nurturing atmosphere that enhanced the retreat experience. The absence of dogmatic beliefs or elaborate rituals further added to the center's inclusive and accessible nature, making it suitable for individuals from diverse backgrounds and belief systems.In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Dipabhavan to anyone visiting Koh Samui and seeking a profound meditation retreat. The center's serene ambiance, coupled with its focus on Anapanasati meditation, offers an opportunity for deep self-reflection, enhanced concentration, and personal growth. Embracing the solitude of this tranquil sanctuary, I discovered a profound sense of peace and clarity that continues to resonate within me. Dipabhavan truly provides a sanctuary for those seeking solace, self-discovery, and an enriched meditation experience. Laurent P.

Dorje Khyung D		For almost thirty years, practitioners have come to know Dorje Khyung Dzong ("Indestructible Garuda Fortress") as an ideal place for solitary retreat. Secluded on over four hundred acres of piñon and juniper forests in Southern Colorado at an altitude of 8200 feet, DKD provides the quiet and privacy of a solitary retreat for those who seek to deepen their spiritual practice through meditation. While most of the retreatants who come here are practitioners of Tibetan Buddhism, people from any contemplative tradition who have a well established practice are welcome here. Dorje Khyung Dzong does not offer any group programs and has no guest facilities. Retreatants must be participants in established spiritual communities and have specific guidelines on retreat from their spiritual teacher or guide.

Dorje Ling Bud		Located on a serene property above Portland's Forest Park, Dorje Ling is a resource for those who wish to engage in meditation and the exploration of the wisdom tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. Dorje Ling is a dharma center in the Nyingma school of Tibetan Buddhism. We study and practice the Dudjom lineage according to guidance from Gyatrul Rinpoche, who passed away in May 2023, and in association with his other centers. Originally founded in 1980 by Dudjom Rinpoche Jigdrel Yeshe Dorje and Gyatrul Rinpoche, the center was supported and guided by Gelong Jampal Gyatso, Clark Hansen, from 1989 until his passing in May of 2021. Dorje Ling is now being hosted by Matthew Small, who has been a student of Gyatrul Rinpoche for the last 44 years. Our core Ngondro practice is offered in person and on zoom on Sundays at 11:00. We also offer puja practices following the traditional Tibetan lunar cycle, a book study group, and a weekly meditation practice. Check the Events page and our calendar, watch this website, sign up for our newsletters, and/or contact us for further
Dorje Ling Bud		We introduce the unique spiritual value of both the Tibetan religion and culture through weekly practice, workshops and special empowerment ceremonies. Teachers of other Tibetan Buddhist Traditions are also invited to the center to share different viewpoints within Tibetan Buddhism. Ceremonies for traditional Tibetan Buddhist Holidays are open to the public. In the recent past, the center offered the preliminary teachings and practice for the Kalachakra to numerous American students of diverse cultural backgrounds. Additionally teachings of the Highest Yoga Tantra, the Six-Branch Yoga of Kalachakra were offered to students. Teachings are provided in both the English and Chinese languages. Dorje Ling Buddhist Center was established in 1991 in Brooklyn, NY. Eight years later a second center was established in Atlanta, GA. It is the vision of Tulku Tashi Gyaltsan Rinpoche to revitalize the Jonang tradition in Tibet and bring that same tradition into the western world. Charitable work of the Dorje Ling Buddhist Center is funded through the US Taranatha Society.
Dorje Ling Bud		Dorje Ling Buddhist Center represents the 700-year-old Jonang Tradition of Tibetan Buddhism under the guidance of Tulku Tashi Gyaltsan Rinpoche. It is the first Jonangpa Buddhist Center located in the West. Jonang is the name of a retreat location in central Tibet, in today's District of Lhaze in the Shigaze Area. Since this tradition was developed from that place, followers of this school are called Jonangpa. It is one of the old schools of philosophy in Tibet. The Jonangpa tradition is famous because of its strong historical connection dedicated to the instruction and practice of Kalachakra Tantra. The Jonang tradition differs from other Buddhist schools of thought due to its philosophical viewpoint on the nature of reality. All Buddhists believe the basic nature of all phenomena is emptiness. In Tibetan Buddhism the viewpoint of emptiness is divided into two: self-emptiness and other-emptiness. Most Tibetan Buddhist scholars follow the viewpoint of self-emptiness. However, from Master Dolpopa to Taranatha to the very present day, the followers of Jonang hold the philosophical viewpoint of other-emptiness. Today in Tibet there are more than 50 Jonangpa monasteries throughout the country, supporting approximately 10,000 monks. Comparatively the Nyimapa, Sakyapa, Kagyupa, and Gelugpa have more than 300-1000 monasteries each in Tibet. The Jonang masters are highly trained, both experientially and intellectually in the Kalachakra Tantric system. Dorje Ling Buddhist Center teaches the fundamental Buddhist way of living along with the profound deity-visualization meditation.

DoubleG		Greetings to everyone. I am 82 and a lifelong seeker of truth and wisdom. I’ve seen a lot of decades rise and pass away and my intention is to devote as much time as I have left to following the dhamma and continuing to learn to gladden the mind and open the heart. Listening to Dhammarato’s interviews with Guru Viking have been a pleasure. As well as very educational. And they have been a great help to me for understanding the teachings of the Buddha. I do meditate every day for about an hour. My bio could easily encompass many pages but I would rather not take up a lot of space talking about that. Maybe if I say that I first meditated doing Zazen in about 1967 in San Francisco. Suzuki Roshi was around in those days and I had the chance to sit with him a few times. After that I spent about 15 years living in a spiritual community and although we didn’t practice meditation much, we did practice non-violence and we ate a vegan diet. I am a father, and now a grandfather as well. For the past 8 years I have been practicing Theravada meditation, mindfulness of breath. I’ve been retired for several years and these days I spend a lot of time listening to podcasts and reading books related to Theravada practice. I live in Oakland, California. Metta.
Douglas-Tatary		A Personal Perspective The Bio-Emotive Framework has been a life long work for me. At one level it is an attempt to bridge the practical, experiential world of the clinician with the rigorous data driven, theoretical world of science and psychology. While my clinical practice and Ph.D. training gave me the background abilities and insights with which to work, it was my wife’s and my relationship and life interests which was the ground from which the Bio-Emotive Therapy system emerged. On another level the Bio-Emotive Framework is the result of a very personal quest for understanding myself and my relationships: striving to love fully in a marriage with four children, and sometimes finding myself acting in ways that were hurtful to the people I loved. Trying to cope with the chaos of married life and be better people, my wife and I did what we had been doing for years; we talked extensively, we studied, and we participated in weekend personal growth workshops, we did meditation retreats, etc. In terms of the meditation and spirituality, we had studied intensively in the Fourth Way, Sahaj Marg, Buddhism, Yoga, Integral Philosophy, and other teachings. This helped immensely on some levels, but still something was missing. It was while working personally with spiritual teachers and leaders – people we admired and aspired to be like – that we realized they were struggling with the same inter-personal issues with which we, and everyone else, were struggling. This was the missing piece; Spiritual development and growth, and the best of intentions, do not ensure healthy inter-personal relationships. (In some of my more informal talks in the early 2000’s I referred to this as “Why spiritually advanced people still do and say dumb things”.) It was after this realization, and in becoming more familiar with Ken Wilber’s Integral Theory, that I slowly began to see the Bio-Emotive Therapy I was developing with my clients in a larger, evolutionary context. Using insights from Spiral Dynamics and Integral theory, the Bio-Emotive Framework revealed a new perspective on it all. We, as a culture, suffer from cultural alexithymia. My clients, while suffering personally and idiosyncratically from depression, anxiety, marital discord, etc, were all suffering from this cultural affliction. The Bio-Emotive Therapy system moved from just helping people with mental health problems to become the Bio-Emotive Framework; a method for dealing with our cultural alexithymia before it becomes a mental health problem. It allows individuals to fully integrate their feelings and emotions into their functional lives, to live fully at a post-modern stage of development and beyond. Recent Developments in Psychology that Support the Bio-Emotive Framework The Bio-Emotive Framework is also supported by more than my anecdotal evidence, in that it is similar to many other recently developed therapies that emphasize emotional processing and that do have strong research supporting them, including Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT), Internal Family System (IFS) and Coherence therapy.

Down East Dhar		The Down East Dharma Society was established in January of 2002 to provide an atmosphere of support and inquiry for those who seek an understanding of the human condition at it's very core. We believe that through the practice of meditation and mindful living there arises the wisdom that enables one to face, with equanimity, the vicissitudes of life. The Down East Dharma Society welcomes all, regardless of race, creed, or religion, who truly desire freedom from suffering for all living beings. The group meets primarily for meditation and discussion. We have no devotional service as I'm the only Buddhist in the group. We currently meet in a member's home every other Tuesday. I hope to one day have a center here that can offer formal retreats but for now it is enough to have a place for those who desire freedom from suffering to meet with others with the same goal.

Drikung Kagyu		Drikung Kagyü or Drigung Kagyü is one of the eight "minor" lineages of the Kagyu school of Tibetan Buddhism. Phagmodrupa’s Heart Son, Kyobpa Jigten Sumgön (1143-1217) took over the throne of Phagdru at Densa Thil Monastery for three years after his teacher’s death (1177-1179). He then established his own lineage with the foundation of Drikung Thil Monastery in the area of Drikung, as Phagmodrupa had predicted. The Drikung Kagyu Lineage is one of the Kagyu lineages which was founded 800 overs years ago, by the great spiritual master, Kyoba Jigten Sumgon (Sanskrit; Ratna Shri). All these teachings were transmitted to PhagmoDrupa by Dharma Lord Gampopa. Although Kagyu came from the same root, at that time the Kagyu lineage flourished into several different branches, each carrying the complete teachings and enlightened blessings. Like the wish-fulfilling tree, which comes from the same root, but is divided into different branches, each giving many wonderful blossoms and fruits. Although PhagmoDrupa had hundreds of thousands of disciples, Lord Jigten Sumgon was one of his closest and chief disciples. Phagmo Drupa prophesied that the teachings and blessings would be carried on by a Bodhisattva, (Jigten Sumgon), who already attained the ten Bhumis. Phagmodrupa’s successor, Lord Jigten Sumgon, (1143-1217) who is the embodiment of the Buddha of the Three Times and a reincarnation of Arya Nagarjuna. He appeared at an auspicious time and place acting as an inspiration to those determined to be free of samsara. Early in his life he met with great masters, received all aspects of the teachings, and eventually encountered Lord Phagmodrupa, from whom he received the complete lineage teachings.

		The Drikung Kagyu Lineage is one of the Kagyu lineages which was founded 852 years ago, by the great spiritual master, Jigten Sumgon. This lineage directly came from Buddha Shakyamuni and the primordial Buddha, Vajradhara. All their precious Dharma teachings came to Gampopa from three lineages, through fully enlightened masters. The first lineage was called the "Magnificent Blessing Realization" lineage. From Vajradhara, it was passed on to Tilopa, from Tilopa to Naropa, from Naropa to Marpa, from Marpa to Milarepa, and then from Milarepa to Gampopa. The second lineage was called the lineage of "Profound View." It came from Buddha Shakyamuni, and it was passed to Nagarjuna, then to Chanta Kirti and so forth, on to Atisha, and then from Atisha to Gampopa. The third lineage was called the lineage of the "Most Excellent Practice." It came from Buddha Shakyamuni to Manjushri, from Manjushri to Maitreya, from Maitreya to Asanga and so forth, on to Atisha, and then from Atisha to Gampopa. Gampopa received profound teachings, secret oral transmissions, blessings, and so forth of all these three lineages. Then all these teachings were given to Phagmodrupa by Gampopa. Although Kagyu came from the same root, at that time the Kagyu lineage was divided into several different branches, each carrying the complete teachings and enlightened blessings. Like the wish-fulfilling tree, which comes from the same root, but is divided into different branches, each giving many wonderful blossoms and fruits.

dsnthepetman		I love dogs! Actually I love many creatures but I think dogs the most. This is good since I am a dog walker. Some of my other passion are skiing, travel, and live music. I’ve been a meditator for more than 15 years now and once attended a retreat lead by Thich Nhat Hahn.

(Association for International Solidarity in Asia), many local groups of students throughout North America, including major centers in Berkeley, CA, NYC, Santa Fe and Albuquerque, NM, Chicago, Big Island and Oahu, HI, Juno, AK, Boston, Portland, OR, Seattle, WA, Miami, Toronto, Philadelphia. At Tsegyalgar, we have many acres of land, called Khandroling, that is being developed for personal and solitary retreats for members of the Dzogchen Community. At Khandroling, there is a long-life stupa, a sangkhor, a Guardian Cabin, a Vajra Dance Mandala, Rinpoche's personal retreat cabin and we are building 8 more personal retreat cabins. There is also a cabin nearby for doing Dark Retreat. There are weekly practices and monthly weekend practice retreats held on an ongoing basis. Choegyal Namkai Norbu gives Dzogchen teachings in the U.S. at Tsegyalgar and other places. Generally, practice weekends are by donation and $10-20/night to stay in the coed dormitory (holds 12). Tsegyalgar means "place of victorious peak" and Khandroling means "place of the Dakinis."
		Chögyal Namkhai Norbu was born on the eighth day of the tenth month of the Earth-Tiger year (8 December 1938) in the village of Geug in Derge, East Tibet . He was recognised as the reincarnation of Adzam Drugpa, one of the great Dzogchen Masters of the early part of the twentieth Century, when he was two years old. Adzam Drugpa was a disciple both of Jamyang Khyentsei Wangpo (1820-1892) the first Khyentsei Rinpoche, and Paltrul Rinpoche (1808-1881). Adzam Drugpa was a terton, a discoverer of hidden treasure texts, receiving visions directly from Jigmed Lingpa (1730-1798). Mariusz, there are many types of termas and pure visions and dream teachings. You can read the excellent book on terma by Tulku Thundop. Internet is not the best place for validating terma or tertons. He was referring to something specific. Both ChNNR & his root guru have been validated as great masters by some of the greatest Dzogchen masters of 20th Century as great teachers. If you have not validated their terma or teaching credentials, then the best way to avoid unnecessary obstacles in this life time's practice for all of us is to be conservative and careful and follow the teachers we have confidence in. Best wishes. Dzogchen masters I know say: 1)Buddhist religion essence is Dzogchen 2)Religions are positive by intent/fruit 3)Any method's OK unless: breaking Dzogchen vows, mixed as syncretic (Milanese Soup) 4)Don't join mandalas of opponents of Dalai Lama/Padmasambhava: False Deity inventors by encouraging victims 5)Don't debate Ati with others 6)Don't discuss Ati practices online 7) A master told his old disciple: no one's to discuss his teaching with some others on a former forum nor mention him. Publicity's OK, questions are asked from masters/set teachers in person/email/non-public forums~Best wishes

Dzongsar Monas		It was founded in 746 destroyed in 1958 and rebuilt in 1983. Dzongsar Monastery (Tibetan: རྫོང་གསར་དགོན།, Wylie: rdzong gsar dgon) is a Buddhist monastery in Dêgê County in the Garzê Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture of Sichuan, China, southeast of the town of Derge and east of Palpung Monastery. Historically it lay in the Kham region of Tibet. It was founded in 746, destroyed in 1958, and rebuilt in 1983. The monastery belongs to the Sakya school of Tibetan Buddhism and was the main seat of Jamyang Khyentse Wangpo and Jamyang Khyentse Chökyi Lodrö. However it is noted for its eclecticism of the Rimé movement and its openness to most of the teaching sects of Tibetan Buddhism. History Old monastery Dzongsar Gonpa was founded in 746 AD by a Bönpo Lama. Originally there was just a very small temple at this site, called Jowo-Lha-Chig-Kar-Chig and the Bönpo shrine remained until 1958.[1] The original Bönpo Gonpa was transformed into a Nyingma and a Kadampa temple at some stage. In 1275 it was founded as a Sakya monastery by Drogön Chögyal Phagpa on his return from China.[1][2] The hilltop hosting the monastery complex Before 1958, Dzongsar had between 300 and 500 permanent resident monks, but frequently had many more people who camped around the monastery in tents to meet with the lamas. All the temples were destroyed in 1958, but rebuilding began in 1983 under the guidance of Dr. Lodrö Puntsok.[1] The monastery had twenty three temples, large and small, and many important sacred rooms.[2] It contained hermitages such as Khamshe Shekdra, Karmo Taktsang retreat centre, Gargu Shangchub Rihtrek retreat centre, Zamnang Pema Shelpuk, Zingkhok Trawo retreat centre, Tsedrak Drulphuk, Gyalgen Chungtak, Munong Dorjee Drakal, Tsa-chu-juk Chenresig Lhakang, Honda Thongthong Gyalpo, and others.[2] Dzongsar had a unique collection of Rimé scriptures and teachings, gathered by the proponents of the Rime movement, Jamgon Kongtrul, Chogyur Lingpa and Khyentse Wangpo.[2] Although Dzongsar was a Sakya monastery by principle it was known to be flexible in its teachings and made it possible to study eight sects of Buddhism.[2]

Eastern States		Eastern States Buddhist Temple of America (ESBT) The Eastern States Buddhist Temple of America, Inc., found in 1962, is the oldest Chinese Buddhist temple on the eastern coast of the United States. It was found by Mrs. Annie Ying, and funded by her husband Mr. James Ying. Both served as the Founding Co-Chairmen. Eastern States Buddhist Temple, or The Temple, was initially founded to fulfill the needs of Chinese Buddhists in the greater New York area and held its first services in a 20 by 20 space at 1544 Broadway in the rear part of Mr. Ying’s store at 1544 Broadway. Lunch and other activities were held in the basement. In 1962, Eastern States Buddhist Temple was officially registered and then rented its own space at 64 Mott St.. 50 years later, The Temple is still located there and had become a landmark and a community fixture. The choice of 64 Mott Street was dictated not only by the fact that this is a convenient place for Chinese Buddhists to gather each week, but also because Mrs. Ying saw a particular need in Chinatown.

Eiryu-ji Zen C		Eiryu-ji Zen Center was founded by Eran Junryu Vardi Roshi in 2012 for the purpose of continuing the wisdom practice of self-realization and compassionate action. The essence of our practice is drawn from the unique teaching style of Hakuyu Taizan Maezumi Roshi (February 24, 1931—May 15, 1995), who was a lineage holder within the Soto School, and received inka from two Rinzai teachers (Harada-Yasutani Lineage). Maezumi Roshi combined elements of the Rinzai and Soto Schools of Zen, such as the use of koan study and emphasis on shikantaza (“just sitting”). As a lineage holder in this unique tradition, Junryu Roshi engages skillful elements from both traditional schools of Zen. These elements lay the foundation of Eiryu-ji’s continuing spiritual development and direction.

Ewam Choden Ti		The Ewam Choden Tibetan Buddhist Center was established to provide an opportunity for the practice and study of Tibetan religion and culture.

We feel that the union of compassion and wisdom is especially relevant for this age.
		Namchag Khen Rinpoche Ngawang Gelek Namchag Khen Rinpoche Ngawang Gelek was born in 1966, the fire horse year of the sixteenth sexagenary cycle, to his father Lama Namchak Tashi and his mother Peya. From an early age he too showed a propensity for virtuous activities, and showed interest only in the sacred dharma. Their noble father taught him to read and write, and to perform the majority of our liturgies and rituals. He also memorized the four tantras of the medical tradition and other texts and became proficient at identifying medicinal plants and preparing them. In addition, he learned the chants, melodies, and music for our own Namchak tradition from Tashi, the chief chant master of Ngangzo Monastery. During the winter, Khen Rinpoche stays in Nepal and India at Ewam in Asia and leads nuns and others through practices during retreat. During the spring, summer and fall, he spends his time at the Garden of One Thousand Buddhas teaching western students Buddhist philosophy, preliminary Tibetan Buddhist practices and leading retreats. Sang-ngag Rinpoche and Khen Rinpoche are the founders of the Ewam Buddhist Institute whose classes and landmark summer shedra are held at the garden.

Filip Rosenqvi		Hi, my name is Filip :) I’ve been on the path for around 20 years, although I didn’t realize it until about 10 years ago when I started to learn about the Dharma. I'm delighted to be here :) Looking forward to talking with you all. The practices that I have spent most time with and that have been helpful/effective are: — Developing Sila, including becoming a vegetarian and stop taking intoxicants, as well as cultivating kind action, skillful speech, and peaceful conduct. — Samatha/vipassana, calmly observing thoughts and whatever insights that that brings. I first leaned this in a very general way and later Mahasi-style and Ingram-style. I’ve done retreats in Thailand, among them in the lineage of Phra Ajahn Thong Sirimangalo and Mahasi Sayadaw. — Mahamudra/Dzogchen-inspired direkt paths, primarily with Loch Kelly and his direct approach. This has included mantra usage as well. — Open approaches, which developed on its own, but also inspired by Adyashanti. This feels intuitive and spontaneous and somehow connected to Sila, kindness and non-duality. — Light Kasina, which has been very interesting for me even from the very first time. It seems to cultivate very strong concentration. — Inquiry into the self, as described in different ways by many teachers. Adyashanti is one. I also sat with Ganga Maa in the Arunachala-Ramana Maharishi tradition. This tradition and technique is difficult for me to describe but it has been revealing.

		Fo Guang Shan (Singapore) strives to realize the vision of her founder, Venerable Master Hsing Yun. His vision of building a harmonious and compassionate human society as implied in the concept of "Pureland" in Buddhism is by putting wisdom and compassion into action via the promotion of education, Buddhist culture, social welfare services and social togetherness. The development of Buddhism is dependent on the progress of Buddhist education, art and culture. Since 1997, Fo Guang Shan (Singapore) has been promoting Buddhist education among the younger generation. There are Dharma classes that suit the needs of fellow Buddhists from all ages such as the Children's Dharma classes; City Buddhist college classes and Television Buddhist college classes that aim to bring Buddhist teachings that are relevant to our modern lifestyle; Study groups where members discuss and share their experiences in Dharma practices etc. Prominent speakers, well known for their professional knowledge and humour are invited to give Mandarin and English talks regularly for the benefits of our members and the public. In our premise, there is a teahouse with a gallery of Buddhist artifacts for members and friends to share moments together. In our life journey, there are times where we are lost and need support from our Dharma friends. There are times where our Dharma friends need our support. Let Fo Guang Shan (Singapore) be the place for us to share and realize our goals and hopes together.

Recognized as a moral entity with D.M. 29.3.1991, it is the most important cultural institution for the promotion of the knowledge of the Dhamma (law, teaching) in Italy. It was founded by one of the most prominent figures in the history of Buddhism in our country: Vincenzo Piga (1921-1998). In addition to Rome and Milan, there is also a group in Naples. Fondazione Maitreya Milano was founded in 2007 from an idea of the master Flavio Pelliconi (1950-2021) who led it as a teacher and organizer until his death. Since May 2021, Flavio's assistants and students have been carrying on the activities of the Foundation to the best of their ability. Fondazione Maitreya Milano organizes events, initiatives, workshops and courses to promote the knowledge and practice of Buddhism in a unitary and universalist perspective, without any profit or proselytism. Participation is open to everyone, free and free of charge. Nothing is due for the teachings, which are given free of charge. Fondazione Maitreya Milano and its Sangha are supported by the free offerings of students who practice Dāna.


forest hermita		The Forest Hermitage (วัดป่าสันติธรรม) is a branch of Wat Nong Pah Pong (วัดหนองป่าพง), the late Luang Por Chah’s principal monastery in North East Thailand. Set in the Heart of England it is a small, peaceful Buddhist hermitage and comprises Santidhamma, the original property where the monks live and where occasional events open to the public are held, and Bhavana Dhamma, which is for nuns, female devotees and guests. The Forest Hermitage Trust and the Buddha-Dhamma Fellowship are responsible for both properties. The community is led by Ven. Chao Khun Bhavanaviteht
Forest Refuge		Surrounded by the stillness and seclusion of nature, the Forest Refuge offers experienced vipassana meditators the support most conducive to personal retreat. In consultation with visiting vipassana teachers, a program of training in mindfulness and concentration practices is created for each retreatant, designed to nurture the highest aspiration for liberation and to encourage the continuing unfolding of the dharma. In contrast to IMS Retreat Center courses, practice at the Forest Refuge is more independent, less structured and can range from <a href="http://fr.dharma.org/ims/news/one_week_stays.htm">one-week stays</a> to periods of a year or more. Its calm and peaceful atmosphere, together with its unique balance of solitude and community, can help meditators settle effortlessly into greater depths of practice.

		The Soto Zen School of Japan informs our organisation. We also transmit the Koan curriculum which was first brought to Australia in the late 1970’s by Robert Aitken Roshi who founded the Diamond Sangha. The Diamond Sangha spread quickly and is now the largest Zen organization in Australia. We believe that students who want to practice Zen and remain a lay person will have sufficient skill to become a teacher. We also acknowledge those who decide to move to ordination. The ceremony of ordination called Unsui ( those who drift like clouds and flow like water). Soto Zen is the largest Zen organization in Japan with about eight million people declaring themselves practitioners of Soto Zen Buddhism. The main practice of Soto Zen is Shikantaza or as it is known in China, Silent Illumination. Emphasis is placed on the liturgy and chanting style of the Soto Zen sect. We hold that Soto Zen contains the deep practice, and deep meaning of Dogen Roshi and Keizan Roshi, who were instrumental in propagating Zen to Japan. The Diamond Sangha originated from the breakaway Soto Zen group named Sanbo Zen. Three major Soto Zen Roshi in the 20th century, Harada Roshi, Yasutani Roshi and Yamada Roshi formed the Sanbo Zen. Aitken Roshi, a student of Yasutani and Yamada, gave Subhana Barzaghi Roshi transmission and she became the first woman in Australia to become a Roshi. The Way of the Forest and Empty Mountain Zen Hermitage believes that there should be equality of ordination for men and women. We follow both the teaching and koan curriculum of Subhana Roshi and the influence of Jiyu-Kennett Roshi through James Ford Roshi of the Empty Moon Network. The Soto lineage comes from Jiyu-Kennett Roshi who became the first woman to start Shasta Abbey and form a Zen Monastery in the USA. We also acknowledge the part that these two skilful Zen women played in the spread to the Western World of Zen: One as a Lay Zen Roshi and the other as an ordained priest. We seek to bring these two linages together to further establish a place of practice and sangha support for each other and reach out to the people of this Great Southern Land.

Fossil Ledges		On the north shore of Drummond Island you will find the fossil ledges. The “ledges” are made up of the fossilized remains of a salt water coral bed. The "Ledges" is a unique place formed by nature that not many people know about or get to visit. The journey there can be a bit tricky so be prepared for some off-roading. However it is worth your while if you have a vehicle with high clearance. Directions To To get to the Ledges you must have specific directions we don’t want you to get lost or stray onto private property. Other points we ask you: are you mountain biking hiking or driving (We need to know about your car: 2-wheel drive 4-wheel drive high or low under frame.) We will not suggest you go to the Ledges if you do not have the proper transportation. Our desire is to have you enjoy your vacation on Drummond Island. The hard-packed gravel road can be rutted from winter snow melt or heavy spring rains. There is very little mud here just sand and stones. We will caution you about driving through the wet ruts so you do not cut a tire on a stone or hit the bottom of your under frame. We know this sounds very dire and cumbersome but we want you to enjoy a great sight on our Island.

The Foundation is devoted to preserving and spreading Mahayana Buddhism worldwide by creating opportunities to listen, reflect, meditate, practice, and actualize the unmistaken teachings of the Buddha and based on that experience spreading the Dharma to sentient beings. We provide integrated education through which people’s minds and hearts can be transformed into their highest potential for the benefit of others, inspired by an attitude of universal responsibility and service. We are committed to creating harmonious environments and helping all beings develop their full potential of infinite wisdom and compassion.

FWBO Johannesb		The FWBO and TBMSG have some 80 Buddhist centres world-wide, on four continents – but very little presence in Africa. However, a little-known fact is that for some three years now the FWBO has had a centre in Johannesburg - a large and peaceful house situated in the suburb of Emmarentia. It is called Shantikula, which translates as 'Peaceful Tribe', and is run by a small but dedicated team: Ratnajyoti, Vajradhara and Wayne. They are celebrating the new year with the launch of a website, the first time they have had one – and even if you don't plan to be in Johannesburg any time soon you can now find out about their meditation and dharma classes, their courses for stress, anxiety and depression, their macrobiotic cooking, and even the organic vegetable garden! Find it at http://www.fwbojohannesburg.co.za/ – and go visit if you’re ever passing! We’re hoping more photos will appear on their site over time – among other things they have a very special Buddha rupa, carved specially for them following the traditional conventions of African carving – this makes it possibly unique in the Buddhist world.

For this reason, GVS has since its inception been offering residential events (retreats) that allow participants to engage in intensive periods of silence, meditation and inquiry. The Society also offers ongoing weekly sitting group(s) as well as online teachings in audio and video formats. Beyond these activities, the Society also regularly networks with teaching centers, friends and dharma resources worldwide. GVS is incorporated in the state of Florida and is an organization holding 501 © (3) non - profit status with the IRS.

Gateless Gate		The Gass Gate serves as a regional Zen Center for North Central Florida holding four Yong Maeng Jong Jin's (3 day retreats with a guiding teacher) a year. Zen's Glass Gate - Read online for free. AS WITH MUCH OF SOTO ZEN in Japan, there is a lot that Westerners don't know about the world of Japanese nuns.
Gateless Gate		Zen means understanding my true self. "What am I?" Everybody says, "I am." Descartes said, "I think, therefore I am." We always say "I." But what is this "I"? Where does this "I" come from? When you die, where does it go? These are the most important questions you can ever ask. If you attain this "I", you attain everything. That is because this "I" is part of universal substance. Your substance, this desk's substance, this stick's substance, the sun, the moon, the stars-everything's substance is the same substance. So if you want to understand you true nature, first you must attain your original substance. This means attaining universal substance and the substance of everything.

Great Tree Zen		Human beings naturally discriminate, and in doing so we obscure or ignore aspects of life that are not within our experience. Three aspects we seek to explore and experience within Soto Zen practice are the spirituality of the feminine, the unfabricated purity of mind of children, and body awareness.

Sesshins (meditation retreats), workshops, and study classes on various aspects of Buddhist teachings will be open to everyone. Family practice and body awareness classes will also be available. Great Tree willl offer six sesshins each year and two residential practice periods. Non-residents can participate in modified practice periods through their local meditation communities. The long-term vision for Great Tree includes offering assisted living arrangements for older women and women with physical limitations. Great Tree will offer a new perspective on the practice of Soto Zen Buddhism.

Grimsby Cleeth		Historic Kilnwick Percy Hall is a stunning Grade 2* listed building set within 47 acres of grounds with woodland walks, parkland and a lake. It is located just outside Pocklington, near York. The Hall has been the home of Madhyamaka Kadampa Meditation Centre for 30 years, and is a relaxing place of peace and tranquillity. Everyone is welcome to visit Kilnwick Percy Hall, and the grounds are open every day from dawn until dusk. We have a lovely World Peace Café, Gift Shop and Bed & Breakfast. Ask at Reception about our Guided House Tours if you would like to find out more about the history of the Hall. History Kilnwick Percy history stretches back to the Bronze Age settlement, and 1 mile away to the east are the remains of a Roman road. William the Conqueror took the land at Killenwick from Morcar, Earl of Northumberland, after 1066 and gave it, together with a hall, to one of his favourite commanders, Robert de Bruis. (His great-great-great-grandson was to become Robert the Bruce of Scotland). Later that century, Ernald de Perci married into the family, and thus inherited the estate: the anglicised name Percy was added, and this also differentiated it from the other Kilnwick, just 10 miles away. The estate and hall have subsequently been owned by several different families, which you can find out more about in one of the house tours. We don’t know much about the original hall, except that it had a thatched roof (we have the thatcher’s bill for its repair) and in 1570 it started to be replaced with a stone mansion in the Elizabethan style. The owner, Thomas Wood, died before the work was completed, his wife remarried and moved away, and the house remained uncompleted for 100 years. In 1702 the Hall and estate were bought by the Anderson family, who completed work on the house and were responsible for creating the lakes out of the original mill ponds, and a formal parkland with carriage drives.

HanMaUm SeonWo		The headquarters of HanMaUm Seon Center is located in Seok-su-dong, An-yang in South Korea. It was established in 1971 to guide people to enlighten their 'real nature', the Buddha nature that all living beings intrinsically have, and finally to reach complete Nirvana.
HanMaUm Zen Ce		In June of 1997, Seon Master Dae Haeng Sunim gave a series of Dharma talks in both Los Angeles and Chicago. The Dharma talks were sponsored and hosted by the HanMaUm Branch Centers in the respective areas. Each session was a hugh success, especially in the Chicago area where there were a high number of non-Korean attendees. Following her Dharma talk, the Seon Master felt it was necessary to offer teachings in English. As a result, a class in English was established by her on June 29th 1997 at the HanMaUm Zen Center Chicago Branch center. The Seon Master appointed her disciple, interpreter, and assistant, Chongwol Sunim, to be the resident teacher for the English speaking practitioners. Classes have continued from that day on.

Hazy Moon Zen		Many people seek peace of mind through Zen meditation. For others, Zen represents an authentic and ancient spiritual teaching whose unbroken line is traced to the very enlightenment of the Buddha. The Hazy Moon Zen Center in Los Angeles brings people together to learn classical Zen Buddhism, and to thereby enrich and invigorate their everyday lives. We do so by practicing zazen, or Zen meditation, by working with a teacher, and by helping one another as a sangha, or community. Beginners find a friendly and unpretentious place to learn firsthand about Zen. More experienced practitioners find the familiar grace of the Japanese Zen tradition, whose elegant form we follow.

Hokyo-Ji New A		Hokyo-ji, with the honorific mountain name of “Seizan,” is an independent Imperial Convent of the Rinzai Sect of Zen Buddhism. It has been called the “Dodo-no-Gosho (Dodo Imperial Palace),” because of its close connection with the Imperial Household. The Convent was founded by Abbess Karin Egon, the 6th Abbess of Keiai-ji, who was also a daughter of Emperor Kogon in the 14th century. The principal image of worship is a statue of Sho Kannon (the sacred Bodhisattva of compassion) which was said to be caught in a fishing net off the coast of Ise. The statue held a sacred mirror, and was kept at the Imperial Palace during the Oan period (1368-1375). Later, Emperor Gokogon granted the statue to Abbess Karin Egon, who established Hokyo-ji with the Sho Kannon as its principal image. He also accorded her the temple name “Hokyo-ji (lit.,“Temple of the Sacred Mirror”),” in tribute to the statue’s origins.

Houston Zen Ce		The Houston Zen Center was founded in 2003. The Houston Zen Community began in about 1988, when a meditation group, led by Unitarian minister Bob Schaibley, started in First Unitarian Church in Houston. Later the Houston Zen Community evolved into a Soto Zen group and, in 2003 opened its own Center in the Houston Heights neighborhood. Tenshin Reb Anderson Roshi, Senior Dharma Teacher of San Francisco Zen Center, began to lead retreats for the Houston Zen Community in 1995. The Abbot, Setsuan Gaelyn Godwin, began to lead us in 1999 and moved to Houston in 2003. We established our Center in the Heights in the same year. HZC eventually outgrew its first building and, in 2007, moved three blocks north to its current location in a large 1918 Craftsman–style building. The grounds now include two meditation halls, the hojo, or Abbot’s residence, an organic garden, monk’s residences and classrooms. Buddhist meditation and its evolution In the first century CE a great flowering known as the Mahayana, or “Great Vehicle,” occurred. The Mahayana elaborated on the earlier tradition, emphasizing the role of the bodhisattva, the being who practices with and for all others. Soto Zen is one of the many branches of the Mahayana. Over many centuries, various practitioners brought Buddhist teachings and practices to China where they spread throughout the country. (See recommended readings for detailed accounts of this rich and dynamic time in Buddhist history ‐ a time with striking parallels to the present, as Buddhist teachings and Western culture come into contact with each other.)

Hsi Lai Temple		Hsi Lai Temple was built to serve as a spiritual and cultural center for those interested in learning more about Buddhism and the Chinese culture. It is the idea of Venerable Master Hsing Yun to propagate "Humanistic Buddhism" and to create a Pure Land here on earth. Hsi Lai Temple is built to fulfill these goals in the United States. The temple's objectives are to nurture Buddhist missionaries through education, to propagate Buddhism through cultural activities, to benefit society through charitable programs, and to edify the populace through Buddhist practices.

Hsu Yun Buddhi		The Hsu Yun Buddhist Association was formed by Rev. Chuan Dao Shakya to further the teachings of Grand Master Hsu Yun, Chinese Buddhism and Buddhism in general. The goal of the organization is to explore traditional Buddhism and to offer teachings, religious services and ritual. The purpose of this organization is to teach traditional Buddhism, meditation and to offer a full range of religious services including, but not limited to; weddings, funerals, house blessings, visitation to the sick and the dying, etc. Services (mediation, chanting & Dharma talk) are conducted on Sundays at 9:30 AM (English) and 11:00 AM (Vietnamese and English).
Hsu Yun Buddhi		Chan Buddhism developed through a synthesis of Indian Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism, and ancient Chinese folk religion before making its way to Japan to become Zen. Chan's two dimensions -- one mystical or ascetic, and another religious or social -- are distinct but synchronistically codependent. Our website offers an opportunity for readers to learn about Chan's complex matrix of beliefs, customs, and ascetic practices in both historical and contemporary contexts as well as to contribute their own thoughts and commentaries. We emphasize the value of Chan's mystical tradition and its relationship to the religious expression of Buddhism, a relationship that can be confusing and easily misunderstood.
Huayan Temple		First established in 1038 in the 7th year of Chongxi period (1032–1055) in the Liao dynasty (907–1125).

Huayan Temple or Huayan Monastery (simplified Chinese: 华严寺; traditional Chinese: 華嚴寺; pinyin: Huáyán Sì) is a Buddhist temple located in Datong, Shanxi, China. Huayan Temple has been burned down and rebuilt several times. The Mahavira Hall and Buddhist Texts Library still preserve the architectural style of the Liao and Jin dynasties (907–1234).

Foreigner monks are treated well and highly valued. iMonastery is partnered with Pa Pae Meditation Retreat Centre, and has many senior English speaking mentor and teaching monks to train new monks in the livelihood of being a monk including vinaya, temple/cultural etiquette, meditation, and dhamma. The abbot of iMonastery is Phra Achan Naringchai, 17 years in robes. The monastery is in the Thai Dhammakaya tradition. The main temple, located in Thonburi Thailand, "Wat Dhammakaya", is said to be the largest Theravada Buddhist temple in the world. The tradition and meditation technique taught has been highly influenced by the Buddhist commentary "The Vissudhimagga" (The Path of Purification). Lots of variability is taught in the meditation technique so it could suit each person. Emphasis is on feeling "sabai" in your meditation. Thai visa work is taken care of by the monks at the monastery. It is recommended you arrive initially with a Thai tourist visa (60-days), which can be extended once for another 30 days. A one-year Thai non-immigrant (R) visa can be issued if you have intentions to stay as a monk for a longer period. Accomodation for new monks is tent under individual sala. Breakfast and Lunch are cooked by employed kitchen staff. Bindapat (alms round) to the local village is done throughout the week by different groups of monks. Many outings for the monks are also scheduled such as visits to the local village school to teach English and Dhamma to children. The rain's retreat provides a great deal of time for daily meditation practice. Secluded private areas are available to practice at around the property. The monastery is located on 1000 acres of land but currently only a small portion is utilized. Many construction projects are in progress to expand the structures. At 900 meters elevation in the mountains of northern Thailand, the weather is cool throughout the year and is ideal for comfortable meditation practice. Night time temperatures are sometimes below 15 C. Adequate blankets and electric heating pad provided.

Insight Medita		Insight Meditation of Cleveland provides a gathering place for those who wish to practice Insight (or "Vipassana") meditation. Insight meditation is a simple, direct practice - a moment to moment investigation of the mind/body process through calm and focused awareness. Learning to observe experience from a place of stillness enables one to relate to life with less fear and clinging. Seeing life as a constantly changing process, one begins to accept beauty and pain, fear and joy in all aspects of life with increasing equanimity and balance. As insight deepens, wisdom and compassion arise. Insight meditation is a way of seeing clearly the totality of one's being and experience. Our growth in clarity brings penetrating insight into the nature of who we are and increased peace in our daily lives.
Insight Medita		"Insight meditation, or Vipassana, is one of the central teachings of the Buddha. It has continued as a living practice for 2500 years. At the heart of insight meditation is the practice of mindfulness, the cultivation of clear, stable and nonjudgmental awareness. While mindfulness practice can be highly effective in helping bring calm and clarity to the pressures of daily life, it is also a spiritual path that gradually dissolves the barriers to the full development of our wisdom, compassion and freedom."
Insight Medita		We are a Buddhist meditation group located in Eastern Washington that practices in the Insight Meditation (Vipassana) tradition.

		El INSTITUTO DE DIFUSIÓN BUDISTA IDB procura poner a disposición de los interesados la amplia gama de las enseñanzas del Buda, así como de las distintas tradiciones que fueron desenvolviéndose al paso de los siglos. Con este propósito, en Chile, desde el año 1981 hasta la fecha, hemos cumplido con una tarea auto-impuesta de facilitar las condiciones para que profesores de las distintas vertientes budistas, monjes y laicos, visiten nuestro país, desarrollen un programa de enseñanza y logren generar y establecer grupos representativos en nuestro país. Este servicio ha sido posible gracias a la generosa colaboración de muchas personas, quienes a lo largo de todos estos años, han apoyado este proyecto. Respetamos todas las expresiones del Budismo. Reconocemos tres grandes vertientes: la tradición Theravada, la tradición Mahayana y la tradición Vajrayana o Tibetana. Nuestra visión de las enseñanzas procura ser imparcial, alejarse del fanatismo o intolerancia, del sectarismo, la superstición y el proselitismo. Estudiamos las enseñanzas y puesta en práctica, teniendo siempre presente las necesidades y condiciones de la vida presente. No enfatizamos las características locales ni culturales en que muchas veces las enseñanzas vienen presentadas debido al contexto donde florecieron. Necesitamos estar muy alertas para no confundir aspectos secundarios con la pura exposición de la experiencia del Buda. Nuestro acercamiento intenta llevar adelante al mismo tiempo el estudio, el ejercicio de las enseñanzas y la aplicación práctica durante el transcurso de la vida.

Intermountain		Vipassana, which means to see things as they really are, is one of India's most ancient techniques of meditation. It was taught in India more than 2500 years ago as a universal remedy for universal ills, i.e., an art of living. Since the time of Buddha, Vipassana has been handed down, to the present day, by an unbroken chain of teachers. The current teacher in this chain, Mr. S.N. Goenka, was born and raised in Burma (Myanmar). While living there he had the good fortune to learn Vipassana from his teacher, Sayagyi U Ba Khin.

International		The International Meditation Center - USA was founded in 1988 to promote the practice of Buddhist Vipassana meditation as taught by the late Sayagyi U Ba Khin. The practice is aimed at developing a calm mind leading to the realization of Nibbana. From the time of the Buddha, over 2500 years ago, Buddhist meditation has mainly been practiced within the monastic order. Sayagyi U Ba Khin encountered the teachings as a layman and realized the importance of Buddhist meditation to modern man. He had a unique ability to teach lay people meditation. Sayagyi U Ba Khin became a highly respected meditation teacher in Burma. He taught students from all over the world until his demise in 1971. Since then, his leading disciple Mother Sayamagyi has carried on the tradition. She has taught meditation for more than fifty years and has established further International Meditation Centers worldwide. Ten-day residential meditation courses are held approximately every other month at IMC-USA. They begin on a Friday evening and end early on a Monday morning. The courses are led by a regional teacher under the guidance of Mother Sayamagyi. Anyone who comes with an open mind can gain the necessary confidence in the technique. The benefits will be proportional to the amount of balanced effort made. The students who attend the meditation courses are from all walks of life, professions, religions and cultural backgrounds.
International		The UK International Meditation Centre was purchased in late 1979 and opened soon after in early 1980 to promote the practice of Buddhist Vipassana meditation as taught by the late Sayagyi U Ba Khin. The practice is aimed at developing a calm mind leading to the realisation of Nibbana. From the time of the Buddha, over 2500 years ago, Buddhist meditation has mainly been practised within the monastic order. Sayagyi U Ba Khin encountered the teachings as a layman and realised the importance of Buddhist meditation to modern man. He had a unique ability to teach lay people meditation. Sayagyi U Ba Khin became a highly respected meditation teacher in Burma (Myanmar). He taught students from all over the world until his demise in January 1971.

Isthmus Zen Co		The Isthmus Zen Community is a friendly group of people of diverse ages and backgrounds who come together to practice Zen as taught by Zen Master Seung Sahn, the 78th Patriarch in the Korean Chogye order, and the first Korean Zen Master to live and teach in the West. We support each other in the practice of Zen and work to make Zen teaching and group practice available to all who are interested. Some of us are long-time practitioners, while others are fairly new to Zen practice. Everyone is welcome!

Launched with the inspiration of the late Venerable Pema Losang Chogyen, a Namgyal monk, and several of his American friends, Namgyal-Ithaca was established as a branch of the main Namgyal Monastery located in Dharamsala, India. The primary mission of the newly established Ithaca branch was to offer Western students the opportunity to study authentic Tibetan Buddhism in a monastic setting.

Jacksonville F		We are glad you have found us, and hope you will find here what you are looking for, whether it be meditation classes for beginners, special meditation retreats and courses, advanced Buddhist studies, books on meditation & Buddhism,and so on.
Jacksonville F		Zen means meditation, not necessarily meditation on any set thing. It can just be ongoing meditation on where the total you--mind, body and life--are at each present moment. That word "sangha" (pronounced "sahng′-hah") means a group that comes together with a purpose in common. So there is an agreement between us to help each other--for instance, by sitting still (within reason) so as not to disturb each other during meditation. We have no dependency on any other organization, but we have a long-term and strong relation with DBZ (www.daibosatsu.org), Dai Bosatsu Zendo Kongo-ji, a Rinzai Zen Buddhist monastery in New York State. Zenrin, our Zen "teacher," trained there trained there for 12 years with its founding abbot, Eido Tai Shimano Roshi, and now also with its abbot, Shinge Roshi, Roko Sherry Chayat (the title "Roshi" means Zen Master). Their lineage goes back through the 9th Century Chinese Zen Master Rinzai all the way to the Buddha, nearly 2500 years ago. Thus we are able to offer Zen training in the Rinzai tradition here in Jacksonville and, through "scholarships," at DBZ itself. But you by no means have to be Buddhist or Zen to come and "try it out". A couple of us are Catholics, and another is a Muslim. People come for all sorts of reasons, for instance, as a slow but steady and very effective way to deal with high blood pressure. And zazen (sitting Zen) makes you healthy in general. There's a plus: if you stay with it, you'll find yourself with deeper peace of mind than you have ever known.

jefe2060		Gosh what to say! I've been on the path as long as I've been alive. Anyone who suffers is: it is always the central question at the heart of any kind of dissatisfaction, at whatever point on the continuum that may be, namely, "How the $%^# can make this stop? Whats wrong with me, what's wrong with [it, them, __ ]?". My central practices have been Chinese internal arts as practice [generally] lead towards truth, peace, or at least, more reality than typically passes for normal. Gravity, breath, change, movement, space, touch, and "listening" ("ting jin") as well as "relax / release / sink / surrender" ("song") have a way of working. I got serious about "meditation" a couple of years ago as a result of the 12 Step Recovery framework ceasing to give me the kind of meaning and healing it had. All the vehicles I've used all along eventually got to their end of usefulness. I started using a brilliant resource that incorporates elements of simple mindfulness within a non-dual framework, and it wasn't long before my "self" (the guy I always thought I was) dissolved and all that was left was...this. All of this. Starting my own community is important to me but I'm not very good at it, and neither standard approaches to Buddhism nor the (so-called) "Secular" versions seem quite right. What a surprise! Yet again, I don't fit in anywhere - only EVERYWHERE ;>) I chose "Zen" as my affiliation because there is (strangely) no option to say something like "unaffiliated", "secular" (which wouldn't quite be accurate either) or "eclectic". Zen is cool though. After my "awakening" all the koans made perfect "sense", so I might as well be a Zen guy, esp considering the fact that I ruined my knees doing seiza in Karate years ago (my knees were never meant for that stuff) and even went as far as to go with a friend to his temple, get a gohonzon (sp?) and try chanting for a while. So, yeah. No. Whatever.

Jeta Grove Med		Welcome This is the website of Jeta Grove Foundation a non-profit organization created to steward funds donated to help with the establishment of a Theravada Buddhist forest monastery in the Northeast U.S. specifically a branch monastery of the monastic community of Ajahn Chah and Ajahn Sumedho. This became a reality in March 2015 with the purchase of a property in Temple New Hampshire: Temple Forest Monastery. Jeta Grove was formed when it became clear that supporters’ long-expressed wish for a monastery in New England could become a reality and that a tax-exempt non-profit organization would be needed in order to handle the financial aspects of the project – as the monastic community (the ‘Sangha’) are prevented by their vows from having legal control over money. Jeta Grove accepts donations and manages the finances of the monastery and the board members work closely with the monks to manage expenditures according to the Sangha’s needs. Much more information can be found on the monastery website: forestmonastery.org More about the related monastic community can also be found on the websites of Abhayagiri and Amaravati Monasteries and the portal site for other Western branches: Abhayagiri – About Amaravati Monastery forestsangha.org The monastic directors of the project are: Ajahn Jayanto Ajahn Anando The directors of Jeta Grove Foundation are: Eric McCord – President Christine Mann – Treasurer Anna Meigs – Clerk Tom Bassarear

jonathankahanm		41M cardiologist, live in south florida, father of 3, have been meditating since I was 11, really got going the past few years when I learned how to meditate while doing slow steady jogging alone, split my "I" recently then split it again by visualizing the emotions/sensations as prison bar cages. Now am able to manipulate them and have gone through things like time dysynchrony. I had no idea about all of this stuff and just had to reverse engineer that it is maybe called dry insight? I approached this from a scientific standpoint and limited religious standpoint and am looking for some direction from here. I even had to lookup what theraveda was, but it is basically identical to what happened. I believe I am supposed to keep going, as I am 90% suppressed on emotions/sensations but not 100%. I am still in shock that this stuff works.

Josh Lockwood		Initially practicing at the Buddhist Society for Compassionate Wisdom in Chicago (Seon - Samu Sunim), I then explored various other Zen traditions (Soto & Rinzai). I have always been drawn to the Theravada tradition, utilizing its dhamma talks, sutta resources (ATI), and instruction to support my practice, but have never lived close to a center in the tradition. Due to the commercial and/or secular approach to many centers in my area, I have not been active in a Sangha since moving to California in 2015. Having discovered this resource in November 2025, I am looking to change that.

Juniper Santa		Juniper [Tibetan Gelug] Address : 2369 Empire Grade, Santa Cruz, CA 95060 Phone : (831) 423-8700 Email : HBCScruz@aol.com From 1994 to 2002, in a small country house in Sebastopol, California, Segyu Rinpoche operated a traditional Tibetan Buddhist center. High lamas from Tibet visited regularly and marveled at its authenticity and potency, and students came from all over the world for meditation and retreats. Segyu Rinpoche had been trained at the highest levels of Tibetan Gelugpa tradition, spending over 30 years under the tutelage of Kyabje Lati Rinpoche, one of Tibetan Buddhism's most renowned masters. Left arrowRight arrow Yet Segyu Rinpoche and four of his students felt that it was possible to have a more widespread impact with these practices. They believed that to do so would require something different, a new approach that dropped the religious and cultural artifacts of the past, embraced new knowledge and discovery, and spoke to contemporary times. Beginning on January 14, 2003, Rinpoche and those four students set out to examine how to accomplish the task of making the essence of these practices accessible in contemporary life. Picture of Rinpoche Picture of Hillary Picture of Christina Picture of Pam Picture of Lawrence Each believed that meditation is a timeless endeavor to refine our experience as human beings, and to cultivate the very best in our potential. Their work included dissecting the tradition as handed down from the past, identifying those principles and precepts that no longer stand the test of contemporary knowledge, and embracing the claims and findings of science where they clearly supplant older views. Left arrowRight arrow Ten years later, the result is Juniper, a meditation school in which the wisdom and experience of a long-standing meditation tradition are presented in a secular form, tailored to modern culture, knowledge and sensibility. Photo of the Juniper Center The cultural and religious wrappers have been shed, all the while respecting that the essence of this path is about undoing limiting dogmas and unlocking the mind’s potential to soar joyfully and freely in an ever changing world. Left arrowRight arrow Juniper's story continues to unfold. In 2009 we opened a meditation hall in Redwood City, California; in 2011 we launched an integrative care clinic in Palo Alto, California; and in 2015 we opened a beautiful meditation center in San Francisco and moved our integrative care clinic there. We also introduced our first online meditation offerings, created to enable individuals anywhere to engage this path. We invite you to be part of it.

Kadampa Medita		Kadampa Buddhism is a special tradition of MahayanGen-la_Dekyong-300x225a Buddhism founded by Atisha(982-1054 CE), an Indian Buddhist Master largely responsible for the reintroduction of Buddhism into Tibet in the eleventh century. ‚ÄòKa' refers to all Buddha's Sutra and Tantra teachings, and ‚Äòdam' refers to Atisha's special instructions called the ‚ÄòStages of the Path', or Lamrim in Tibetan. Kadampa Buddhists integrate their knowledge of all Buddha's teachings into their everyday lives. The Kadampa Geshes, the followers of Atisha, were not only great scholars but also spiritual practitioners of immense purity and sincerity.
